Charis Update!
Tim's mom Charis has done a 180 from before. She has come off of the ventilator, and she was talking to us yesterday. What happened yesterday was something that we thought wouldn't happen for awhile. This morning, they actually sat her in a chair, and she was eating a little breakfast. Breathing is still tough for her, but she's doing great. She's really scared, but Tom is right there by her side. She was cracking jokes yesterday and definitely making us laugh. She's a fighter, and she has all her boys down here fighting for her too. I told her that she needs to get better and get out of that hospital to help me wrangle all these boys. At mine and Tim's house, its me, Tim, Tom, Terry, Tom (Tim's dad), Kaid, and Brighton. I wouldn't have it any other way. She married a wonderful man, and raised excellent sons, so it's really a breeze, we keep eachother encouraged and entertained. It's kinda fun taking care of everyone and really just getting closer as a family. People down here in Prairie Grove have been amazing. We have food coming out of our ears, but with 5 adults and Kaid I'm sure we'll get our fill. Continue to pray for Charis' recovery; I'm sure she'll be out of the hospital and back to her sassy self in no time. Amen!

ReplyDeleteVal you are a winner....that Timmy sure knew how to pick a good wife. It must run in the family. The prayer chain has been the strongest I have ever witnessed. Everyone in St. Louis is just so grateful that Charis is recovering so well. Give our love to her, Tom and all of you. We will continue with the prayers. Mary Beth Nibberich
