Dear Family and Friends,
Anita was a little nervous and apprehensive about moving from the bed to the wheelchair, especially since it meant putting all her weight on that right foot and simultaneously twisting and getting her anchor to hit the chair. To avoid that problem and collection of neg. feelings the rehab. folks provided a small board to sit on and slide from the bed to the chair after coming to a sitting position. We don't understand this situation at first because we haven't been lying down for almost fifty days, it's all in your perspective. Anita did have a good ride today and even powered the chair on her own for part of the way down the hall. I pushed the remainder of the trip around the fifth floor as we watched the snow fall on Atlanta. Did you get any?
Anita's appetite is gradually coming back and probably will pick up speed as she burns calories on all this physical stuff. Hope you are well and safe as we experience some of the harsher aspects of winter, ie s&i. Take care until we meet again on the next blog. ed
Ed and Anita
A nice night to remember

What huge milestones Anita is accomplishing! We are so proud in Birmingham and continue to cheer you on. We did get a little snow today so we made a little snowman with the kids. Very interesting indeed!
Keep up the good work. Eat well and drink lots of water.
Stay encouraged for God is with you always and so many are praying on your behalf.
