EVEN QUICKER UPDATE
I hope more will follow tomorrow. For now, I spoke with my brother-in-law tonite. He's back in Michigan with his kids, and Anjee is helping at the hospital.
Hannah: Jim says she is in "the best-case scenario." She has thrown up once, she's used the bedpan a couple times. People are happy about that! Her tummy looks like a jigsaw puzzle with tubes coming out of it all over the place, but organs are beginning to function, and that's great! She's off the ventilator. Earlier in the week, when she first came out of a coma and could speak, once she found out where she was and what had happened, her only concern was for the rest of the family. She wanted them to all be ok and better off than she was. Pray that no infection or abcesses will occur anywhere in her body and that these internal injuries heal effectively.
Ruth: Originally it was thought that she'd be released today and brought back for surgery on her ankle. She needed 2 pints of blood yesterday, though, so she will not be released until they figure out what's happening with her. Pray that God will give the doctors the wisdom and urgency necessary to correctly discover any problems.
Other than that, no news is good news. Please continue to pray for them all. It's all around painful for the entire family.
