UPDATE:
Tried to call Maggie using her cell phone number and got DaBear instead. He said that when he got to the Rehab Center this morning they told him that Maggie was disoriented this morning. He went in to see her and he said she was NOT disoriented. Perfectly lucid. Several other things have happened to make him suspect that the center is trying to steer the family into leaving Maggie there permanently. He had a talk with Maggie and they set things in motion to get her home this Thursday. The way he put it, "Maggie and I started trouble this morning." LOL.
FWIW, I agree with DaBear. Maggie will do better at home. He said when they decided to bring her home, he saw the glint back in her eyes. She needs to be at home regardless. I don't blame her or him for wanting her home, whatever the outcome. He says the food is terrible at that place and he wants to cook for her. He's a good cook.
Then I called Maggie on the land line. We talked briefly and cried together. deadhead, she received the package and is so grateful. I don't know whether she is able to read it or not, but just knowing that you took the time to download and printout all of the prayers, warmed her heart. I told her that everyone sends their love and a big "THANK YOU" to our Marine. She said, "That is so wonderful." I could tell that she was feeling better by knowing that she was going home. When I told her that I had talked to DaBear and he told me the news, she said, "Isn't that wonderful?"
I think getting the package, the prospect of going home, and my call has made her Independence Day more meaningful. Thank you, all of you, for keeping her in prayer. God bless you all.
BTTT
Deadhead, thank you for printing out this thread and sending it to her. That was so nice of you to do. I hope it lifts her spirits to know how much we love her. :-)
Thinking of Maggie and her family on this special day. I pray Thursday will indeed be a great homecoming celebration. Godspeed.
soooooo,...DaBear and Maggie started trouble this morning.
GOOD!
Prayers still going up.
I do not blame DaBear for wanting to get her out of the facility. My 95-year-old mother was in a rehab facility about a month ago. My sisters and I are convinced that she would have not come out of there alive if we had not set up a schedule so that at least one of us could be with her all of her waking hours. God bless him. And may God be with both of them in her recovery.
Thank YOU, WVNan, for all the things that you do, and for keeping us all up to date. We continue to keep Maggie in our prayers. We are having another wonderful 4th thanks to her and all those like her.
The way he put it, "Maggie and I started trouble this morning."
Don't mess with Freepers!
