Whatever your cross,
Whatever your pain,
There will always be sunshine,
after the rain.

Perhaps you may stumble,
Perhaps even fall.
But God's always there,
to help you through it all!

Jessica continues to take the "small steps" she needs to take towards the ultimate goal of a better functioning life and one with less pain. Yesterday the plan was not to move her and instead give her body rest. Today she will once again receive a booster and during the booster Dr. Cantu and I will try to raise the head of the bed in order to try and allow her body to get accustomed to sitting up and not have that "fainting/dizzy" feeling that she gets. We will use pillows to prop her up and keep her in the bed this time instead of the reclining chair.

"Small steps --- huge advances" : This is Dr. Cantu's famous saying for all of the coma patients suffering with this horrible disease called RSD. Jessica amazes me every day with her perseverence, courage, and strength! She has been through alot, and she has seen alot of "dark" days. I guess you have to go through the "dark tunnels of life" in order to see the "light that exists" when you go through them --- always knowing that God has been with you all the time, either by holding your hand, or guiding your "steps" and sometimes even "carrying you through"!!!

God truly blessed my husband and I when he entrusted Jessica in our care 22 years ago!

May the peace of God be with you all today,
Sarah Gina (Jessica's Mom)*
