Thursday (day28)
Sorry for the tardy post.......again! Not too much to report this time. Shawna only required 6 hrs last night back on the ventilator. She is again off of it. After a rigorous physio the nurses gently placed Shawna in a "neuro chair". I have no idea what they mean by it but the change in position is good for her circulation as her legs can now dangle over the edge of the chair. Deb has to remember to take Shawnas sneakers to the hospital tommorrow as the lucky girl gets to wear her shoes to bed. How many kids have been able to do that? She needs that though for proper ankle support and keeping her toes up. Again not too much to say tonight but definitely more "baby" steps toward recovery. We remain thankful for everything the Lord has given and patiently prayerful that he will grant her full recovery. Thank you for your messages and prayers. Al and Deb

What a great God we have, and what a truly awesome blessing of reassurance and security it is to be counted among the sheep of His pasture. He is surely watching tenderly over His precious lamb named Shawna. It is also our continuous humble prayer, that our chief Shepherd/Physician will continue to grant steps toward healing. May you all find peace in His loving Shepherd arms.
Love, Al and Diane Bergsma

We too continue to pray for a full recovery for Shawna. We are so thankful for the healing that He has granted to date. We also thank the Lord for the strength and patience he has granted all of you so far and ask that he will continue to give you all that you are in need of.

Even though I have never met Shawna I am praying all the time for you guys, and I heard once 'the will of God will not lead you where the grace of God cannot protect you'
I am praying for all of you
love, Laura

Dear Al, Deb and family:
As we start a new day, we begin our thoughts and prayers(as every day) with you and Shawna. We are so thankful for the daily up-dates, and continue to pray for complete healing for Shawna, strength, courage and patience for you all, and for guidance for the hands of the medical staff looking after Shawna. May our heavenly Father give you all your needs today again, as He always has done. We can count on Him to be there with us in whatever circumstance we are. With love from the van Ykens
Every day when we come to read your blog we are reminded of what an awesome God we serve. Again we read of the baby steps that Shawna is making in her recovery. We join with others in praying for her complete recovery.
All of you remain in our thoughts and prayers.
