Hope Day 7

Greetings from sunny Kihei, Maui!  I am looking out at the surf splashng on the rocks below as the palm trees wave in the breeze against a blue sky and feeling incredibly blessed and happy!

I called Hope after we got back from our 6.4 mile morning walk along the beach trail and sidewalks, and was so happy to hear her voice! She was able to stand up twice yesterday, briefly sat in the wheelchair again, and feels that she is slowly improving. She also has increased motion in one hand and it's feeling a little better. So many things to be thankful for! Mostly she is thrilled that her daughter Adrienne surprised her by flying in from Ontario, and her daughter Jenna also arrived safely from Pennsylvania.  So all of her chicks are around her, and that always makes the mama hen very happy!

Here's a link to a wonderful blog post from a friend of hers that you should enjoy and appreciate:
Frame of mind: Hope . I don't know the writer, Shelley Smucker, but from reading her blog, I wish I did.

I'm off, places to go, things to do, sunshine to enjoy! Keep praying and believing for complete healing for Hope!
