Upright again..

Rachel texted me at lunchtime today to say Naomis is sitting in a chair next to her bed. After 9 days horizontal she is feeling a little dizzy, but very proud and happy to be able to see more than the ceiling! Later on in afternoon she was weighed, amazingly she has lost no weight. She has grown 4.5cm as a result of the operation though !

Well done Naomi, Upright at last, I'm sure you soon feel less dizzy.

Thank you so much for keeping us up to date on all that is happening for you, its been good to read all about it and keep you in our prayers.

I am looking after a baby at a leaders retreat this week in Hastings, and they all prayed for you on Wednesday in the prayer room. Take care and see you soon.

Grandma Margaret is now back home and can see the wonderful news for herself now - especially the video clips. We both love your new brace and are truly thankful that you are now able to sit up - well done!
With our love and prayers for the next stage of your recovery.

Dear Naomi when Daddy sent me an instant message this afternoon to tell me the news you were upright, I had what I thought was the biggest smile on my face ever. It almost matched yours actually it is great to see that wonderful big smile in the photo. We are keeping you in our prayers and hoping you keep making such good advances every day. as promised here is the message from Julianne, she was pleased you liked Sharpay as she likes Ryan and Sharpay from HSM and loves singing along to all the songs. She's also very pleased you liked the little bits she helped me chose to post to you.
God bless and keep making this excellent progress
love Kim and Julianne xx

Hi Naomi,
WOW!! What a day. So good to see you upright again and to hear that you have grown too. Sounds to me that a new wardrobe of clothes could be needed (oops sorry mum and dad!!). We loved the cookery video great to hear your voice and see you enjoying yourself. The Denim cast looks trendy too. Great to hear that you might be coming home on Monday. We continue to pray for you every day and thank God for His goodness. Trust that you sleep better tonight and that your ears feel better too Rachel. with loads of love Susan and Placko xx
