I have a GREAT UPDATE Ive been dying to share but couldnt till I was sure! so.....OK!!! my friends , family , and prayer warriors!! We just picked up our daughter and I saw with my own eyes the progress and breakthroughs she has made. My heart is full!! She was chatty all the way home, telling us all the things that she remembers and all the things she did while she ws back home this past week. The "Miracle" (at least thats what Im calling it lol ) Came on Sunday , she went back to the church she grew up in with some long time friends of our family ..who are more like family. ...She saw a lady who was a big part of her church life , this lady held new years parties etc for the kids at her home so they would be safe....organized and helped with church trips etc....When Brie saw her, she recognized her instantly ( this was the first person she recognized on her own since it happen) without thinking she said ...Wow Dana , you have lost a lot of weight! And at that point it was like a trigger and her memories started flashing in her mind as she described from left to right , left right , left right left right!.left right (these are her words). She remembered people places events feelings emotions .
Even our friend that was sitting there saw her eyes moving back and forth left to right as it was happening.
...Here is the part I call the "MIRACLE"...This woman had stopped going to church...she had not been in a couple of months but this particular morning morning ..she said something was making her get up and go that morning,,,she says..OH MY GOSH what if I had not listened!!!
I'll give yall 3.Guesses who that something was, Bet ya only need one. My heart is so full ...I would say we have maybe 70 percent back ...all the way up to high school and bits and pieces of even more recent times before the injury. Not everything yet...but Im not scared anymore!!! and the GREAT thing is ..neither is she..she has plans and dreams and is excited about her future! Seeing her confused and scared was the hardest part so THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH ...you may take a deep breath of relief now It aint over but it aint nothing we cant handle!!!
