Kari Update

Hello!
But I trust in you, LORD; I say, "You are my God." ~Psalm 31:14
    What a beautiful verse!  No matter what I'm feeling or the things that are going on in my head or all around me, "in real life", I know that I can trust in the Lord, He is my God!
    This evening Kari's social worker came and met with us.  She met with the whole team of therapist and doctors today and they said that Kari is still making slow improvements.  She's having more good days than bad, but is still making improvements.  She should be leaving on the 17th of this month. 
   Kari's endurance is getting better, but she is still wanting to sleep whenever anyone will let her.  My mom did say that she was up all day today though.  I am so glad that her stamina is improving, slowly, but surely.  Her doctor was a bit disappointed that she is still wanting to stay in bed all day, so he has started her on something that should help her have a bit more energy.  We haven't quite seen the affects of this medication, but hopefully we'll be able to notice a change soon.  He might try to up the dosage, just to see if it'll help.
    We still aren't sure what's going on with Texas, but we continue to pray that whatever, wherever is best for her, God will make it happen.  Wherever she goes, if it's inpatient seems like its about a month stay, which is totally doable.  We have a few concerns because not everyplace accepts her coverage, but we know that God will work it out.  
   A few highlight from the past few days: Kari bit her OT therapist today in checkers; Kari has been doing things for the family, not because she want to, but because we enjoy those things; She is laughing and smiling a bit more.  She was able to spend time outside with a visit from our crazy dog, Ming, on Sat.; she's been remembering things much more; her stability has great improved.  
   Thank you guys for continuing to pray for Kari and the family.  She is still having issues with her vision and dizziness, but is still wearing the patch, Praise God! My mom is trying to finish all paper work to help with Kari's bill's so, please pray that everything gets approved.  
   Have a wonderful rest of your day!
Be blessed
Kaziah
