November 18th, 2009
Hello everyone. Once again I have to apologize for my procrastination on updating everyone on Mary's progress. I will try to get better! Mary is still plugging away at her rehab and doing a good job at it. They are really working her hard at the physical therapy 3 days a week. It tires her out quite a bit, but that's OK. We are continuing to do exercises at home also. She is getting stronger it seems a little each day. I guess that's why they continue to push her at therapy. Mary has been a little down the last few days. I think everything is really starting to sink in that this is a pretty life changing thing that has happened to her. She just wants it to be like it was. She has said things like, "I was so happy a few months ago, and now look at me." I try to reassure her things are going to get better, but easy for me to say. Her depression really hurts me, as I can't bear to see her like that that. We are trying to do things to bring her up and make her feel as she has a "purpose". Its a challenging task, what we are all facing and trying to work through. I think I might check into some support groups or something like that, maybe that would help Mary, maybe talk to people that are going through what she is. We will keep pushing and praying for her and her recovery. Please, you do the same. We are so thankful for all the help we received over the last month at home. We couldn't have done it without all the support. Thanks to all, and I will be in touch. Thanks.

Mary, I just want you to know I am still thinking about you and marvel at the inner strength you have to fight back the way you have. When I read Scott's earlier posts and then this is one, you truly are a miracle; so there is a reason you have fought back the way you have. When hard things in life come our way, it is hard to figure out why we have to go through them, but is so clear that you mean so much to so many people. You ARE a true inspiration. Scott is a blessing, and has had such remarkable strength throughout this. You all are in my prayers . . . always!
Mary, Keep your chin up. I know how depression can effect you. Dont be embarrassed and get some help. You have been through a life changing event. After Shelby and Stephen died, Craig and I both suffered from depression and we went to counseling. It was a major help. We love you and are praying for you. Connie
