Monday

Hi everyone,

I was trying to make it back to Torrance to visit Sandy this evening but didn't make it. I did talk to her on the phone a couple of times and her voice sounds stronger and clearer. We still have no word from the doctors as to whether they were able to get the entire tumor out. Thanks to Wade and his wife who were able to visit Sandy today, I do have an update. When they first arrived, Sandy seemed a bit dazed and not talking very much, but as the visit went on she became more alert and started talking more. I think having visitors is doing her a world of good! She started a little bit of physical therapy today to help strengthen her left side. Due to normal swelling in the brain from the surgery, it's hard for her to move her left arm and leg. With time and therapy that should and will get better.
