Molly was moved from St Joseph's to Tampa General Rehab Center on Friday afternoon.

Her medical condition had stabilized and the Dr's wanted to get her to rehab asap to start this new phase. The rehab center sits on the mouth of the Hillsborough River so Molly has a view of downtown as well as the river. It is a view you would pay extra for if you were getting a hotel room!

Molly is apprehensive of the rehab. Everyone has told her how much it will hurt. So far, they have tried to sit her up in a wheel chair (but couldn't complete that assignment)have shown her some devices that will help her become a little more independent when she is able to lift her arms with some authority. In general she was introduced to the concept of rehabilitation.
Sat afternoon she went to her first session of rehab. She cried and cried but told the therapist to "do what has to be done"! We are proud of our trooper!!!

Praise God! The great news is that Molly is again able to move her right arm several inches off the pillow it rests on and move them (slowly and surely) to one side. The left arm is not cooperating yet since it was broken in two places. About a week ago Molly had been able to move her right arm some, but lost that ability until about 12+ hours ago.

Molly's aunt(Hunnypie)came down from Georgia and sat with her Friday and Saturday. It put Molly in a great mood! We are all hoping that the bad news will stop for awhile; everyone needs a rest and a dose of good news.

Thanks again for the letters, cards, and phone calls in support of our family! They are appreciated more than you can imagine.
