The First 48 Hours


1:45pm - It's been almost two days now since Sherry's visit to the Neurosensory Surgical Center at Methodist Hospital.


Today she slept in and was still in bed when I got home from church. The Third-Graders at Palmer were already working on this "Get Well" poster for Sherry when I arrived. So sweet.

Sherry's been resting and sleeping; taking a bit of nourishment; and is right now sitting in front of a canvas painting left handed.

Her pain comes and goes, depending on how much she moves around and how long it's been since her last pain pill. She looks better; her face is symmetric again; but she still has bruises, and now her cheek is swollen following her surgery.

She's not in the mood for visitors, but really enjoys emails, cards and letters. She appreciates all the love and support offered by her many friends, and I appreciate it too.

  1. Good job Sherry! You are a tough little Memphis cookie and I'm proud of you. I know this has been hard...sure can't be easy. Good grief. We love you and you know that. Hang in there. Hoping the worst is behind you.

    We love you, too Randy. Couples really need each other for things like this and you are really blessed to have each other.

    Peace and Love,
    Sara

  2. Sara, I almost got an old-fashioned Frayser-girl giggle out of her earlier today. She's coming around. And she's a real trooper. Thanks for being a great friend. We love you guys.
