Sister Time
Well, things are going well. I've been at my sister Amy's apartment the last 3 days, now, and she's doing really well. She seems to be getting stronger everyday! Today we buzzed all around Joanne's and bought some fabric to make scarves and hats. She wouldn't walk more than once around the parking lot yesterday and today she was on her feet walking around Joanne's for a good 1/2 hour! When I arrived she couldn't even talk about food because it was so hard to eat and have an appetite, but just since then (2 days ago) she's eaten all kinds of veggies and fruits, chicken and beans. She tends to eat more every meal, too. It's great! I'm so happy to see that she's really progressing! Just from yesterday to today I can see SUCH a difference. She's got a lot more energy and goes thru these bubbly spurts and all of us (Amy, Mike and me) all seem to be in really good moods. It makes me happy and it's just been good to be around Amy and Mike both. I've forgotten how funny Mike is. Well, that's about all. Just thought I'd let everyone know how we've all been doing!

Yea!! I am so happy and glad you are there!!!
I know that some good sister time always does me good too! It's great that you can be there to support her right now.
It's funny that you said my house is huge because it's really pretty small by normal standards, only like 1300 or 1400 sq ft (the layout makes it look much bigger from the outside) Of course, compared to the places in Belgium that you were used to it probably does seem huge!
What a blessing that timing worked out so perfectly for you to be there for her. Sisters are the best. I can't wait to see the scarves and hats you guys make. Seriously the stuff that Amy makes, blows me away. I am always so jealous that I can't sew like that.
I had to laugh at your comment on Heidi's blog and then hers on yours. Her house does look really big on the outside. My house always has the opposite problem. Everyone thinks that it is small from the outside but the opposite is tru.
I'm so glad Amy is doing better and that you're there to be with her what a blessing!!
Your such a good sister to Amy! I'm sure she is so happy you are home, especially at a time like this. I'm happy you and Greg made it back to the states safely. I'm sad we will not be living in the same town. It was a lot of fun reading about all your fun adventures while you were over seas. Welcome home!
So glad to hear things are going well. I'm sure she's happy you guys are there with her! Thanks for keeping us up-to-date. You guys will contintue to be in our prayers. Take care!
I am so glad that you are able to be with Amy. I bet it's nice to have new people to be around. She is lucky to have you!
I'm so glad you're in the same country as me! Also glad that you're with Amy, I bet you guys missed each other so much and that she's so glad to have you there!
I hope we can chat soon!
Megan you are a wonderful infulence for Amy and I am so glad you're there. I love you grams
I am so glad you are having a good time together! Sister's are wonderful!
I'm SO glad you're there. I love you so much.
Im so happy to hear that she is doing so well! Ben and I have been praying and fasting. This is all so shocking. At least Amy has such a great family to help her get through. I know that I am in Utah and you have tons of help there, but if there is anything that I can do please let me know.
I was really happy to read this when you first posted it. I have still been meaning to come visit your sister but wasn't sure when she was home since she's been at your parents' house. Jessica (Durfee) and I tried visiting one night after she first had Henrietta removed but no one answered so we thought maybe she was still in the hospital. Anyway, I had some flowers for her (which of course have long since died) but I would still love to visit and drop off some FRESH flowers. :)
