What a blessing to spend the weekend in Anchorage with Erika and Brittany!
Both girls had a hard night last night. They were lonely, scared, and wanted Mom. We were told this is part of the normal healing from trauma, but it is very tiring for Don and Jennifer.
Erika is making steady improvements. She was able to go onto "wall" oxygen this morning. This allowed her to be transferred to the regular Pediatrics floor! Her room is across from Brittany's room. Erika's new past-time is going for wheelchair rides. She got to go outside twice this morning and to the cafeteria. Unfortunately, they didn't have any Cheetos!
Brittany had a good day. She was able to have a real shower and put on real clothes. After the rough night, her day got better when she was able to access a new Facebook account (brit bennett). She was very frustrated this morning because she had forgotten her passwords, changed them, and then couldn't remember the new ones. She was locked out of her email and Facebook. Thanks for being understanding. She already has 50 friends on her new page!
