Extreme Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() update... The good news is that early this morning Deannastarted to move about by herself. She is not conscious, and has not opened her eyes, but some limb movement is happening. I takes several days for the paralytic drugs to wear off, so more movement may take a while despite her desire to move. Last night I was able, through talking to her, to get her to gently move her little finger on my hand, and to flutter her eyelids when I'd speak. Little things have really taken on a whole new meaning. The bad news is that later today the doctors will perform surgery to remove Deanna's left leg below the knee. Her leg muscle was not healing after it was in a circulation- deprived state. This surgery is deemed |

In fact, I told my lifeguards here at Temple University about you guys today. It must have been pretty startling to have to suddenly put all your training to use in such an extreme way. Big thanks to you and your colleagues for doing so as you did. -Celeste |

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Ellasdad - Wonderful news. thanks for keeping us udated. I continue to pray for Deanna, and I think you're right. Before long (actually probably after what will seem like a long hard recovery) she'll be back out there. It is amazing what a young athelete can overcome. My love and strength to Deanna. Jon - every lifeguard's worst nightmare. hope you and your buddy are doing ok. Usually things have a way of all working out for the best. It's often hard to see at the time though. |
