14. Sat night update, and thanks for all your support. We moved wife
to rehab hosp today before noon. By the time we got her the evening meal, she had been sitting up in a chair for the longest period thus far. She ate more for dinner than any other meal thus far. I saw more doctors and nurses in this one day than I did any other single day except for last Sun when she arrived in the trauma unit, and this felt good. Staff members put their arms around my shoulders and asked how I was doing, and that felt good. Was told more than once that from their initial assessment there is an outstanding prognosis - perhaps not returnable to 100%, but real close. Wife looked me directly in the eye once and said with complete clarity "This must be very hard on you" and that was very sweet.

Thank you all, my new friends.
