Update On Lilly
Lilly is getting a little bit better everyday. She's been a brave girl and is willing to do whatever Adam and I tell her she needs to be doing. After she puts her opinion in. We see alittle bit of the old Lilly every day :) She was getting her vicoden every four hours on the dot and gradually we've been able to stretch that out now to about six hours and at night to more than that. She's sleeping really good, about 10-12 hours a night. She's walking from the bedroom to the family room in about half the time and sits up most of the day now. She is still afraid to bend her knees or move her legs apart at all. She keeps those legs so tight together she's leaving marks on her thighs where her catheter tubing is. When I ask her why, she says she's scared. She gets her catheter out tomorrow, so hopefully that will change then. She still has trouble sitting in any one position for any length of time. I'm not quite sure how she's going to get around school or sit in her desk all day. We've thought about getting her a wheelchair so she can get from one end of the school to the other and have a soft place to sit in school. We're checking into it. She'll get her second shower tonight, the first one went well after she found out it didn't hurt and actually felt good having it done. One more thing, she hasn't wanted to pray since this happened. I'm not sure what this means, if anything. Please continue to pray for Lilly's continued recovery and that we will do what is best for her.

Thank you for the updates. I am thinking of the family here and Utah and many people here are also praying for Lilly and her recovery both physically and mentally. I love you all.
