Thank you for all your prayers and thoughts for Courtney... She is progressing little by little but because of my work schedule I have been unable to visit her since she has become alert.
Courtney's update is as follows:
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 23, 2008 10:15 AM, CST
This Friday, Courtney is tentatively scheduled to be transferred to the nationally renowned spinal cord and brain injury rehabilitation hospital, Shepherd Center, in Atlanta. She has been making impressive progress in her recovery this past week, showing flashes of her humorous personality, working on using a fork and spoon to eat, and conversing with us regularly; however, she will need to undergo intensive physical, cognitive, and occupational therapies to regain her small motor skills, core strength, ability to walk, improve her short term memory, and other abilities. The full extent of her cognitive issues will be evaluated at the hospital. We are very encouraged that she is ready to move on to this next stage of her recovery process.
