We are here in the SFO President's Club waiting for our flight to Houston. The morning went smoothly, pack mom up, getting our family training from the OT, ST, and PT. The progress Mom has made over the last 10 days is impressive. She can maneuver stairs, walk long distances with her walked (a sweet ride,..), and get around her room independently. Her first car ride went smoothly and she even remarked that she did not feel dizzy while riding!
I have my assignments from all who have manged her recovery, and we're excited to have mom for 2-3 weeks - or longer if she wants to stay. The key will be to continue to keep her mind and body active in what I refer to as Mom's Sugar Land half way house!
The worst part so far is that our plane is delay 1.5 hours, so we're just sitting and waiting right now. So that is all for now. Pretty soon, we're going to turn over the blog to Mom to maintain!

Hi Julia. I just heard the news from John today. I'm stunned and so grateful to hear of your progess, in equal measure. It's wonderful to know you are traveling! Only you know how hard recovery is but we all know you will travel this road with grace and perserverance, your hallmarks. Karen and I send our best wishes and our love. Be well. Bob
Hi Julia,
Hope things went well with the transfer yesterday, and that you're nicely settled in Sugar Land. Sounds so sweet! Am back from LA, and so sorry I didn't see you again before you left -- but so happy you're out of Herrick. I'll keep in touch through the blog and by phone.... and count me in as a driver, game player and chef for all occasions when you return. Big hugs to you, Galen and all the family. Maryellen
Well, Miss Julia, the only other person we want to see get to Texas more quickly than you is George! Delighted to know that you are settling in, that your healing journey is going so well, and that we'll see you back here sooner rather than later! We love and miss you and will call you soon, Cindy and JaNell
Dear Julia,
greetings from beautiful Bainbridge Island. We are glad to hear that you are now in Texas and know that you are well taken care of. We hope that the healing process is continuing to go as fast as it seemed to have been going so far. We can't wait to have you back at Horton Street. We will help with anything you need now and when you return.
Much love and good thoughts,
Ute and Harley
Dear, dear Julia,
I saw Caitlin over the weekend, asked about you, and then couldn't believe my ears when she told me what you've been through.
Barbara and I are sending you loving, healing energy. You are very much on our minds and in our hearts.
If there is anything we can do to help out, then please let us know.
We love you and are hoping the very best for your continuing recovery.
With much love to you and best wishes to Gaylen, Alissa and Mark,
Elizabeth and Barbara
