This is a picture from Sunday afternoon. She's out of bed and in the chair. Next up, walking the halls (after we figure out how to close the back of her gown).
Jenn - You look amazing! I am so amazed and inspired by your strength and attitude! I thought you got new pj's so your tail didn't show! :) Good luck on the walking of the hallways! You can do it - you can do anything you set your mind too! So good to see your smile! God Bless! Kim Wilder
Ask for another hospital gown and put it on as if it were a robe. Promise you won't keep them both, because I understand there is quite a market for those on eBay!
Jenny, We are so happy to see you sitting up and smiling, Praise God for his goodness and his mercy. We and our church will continue to pray for your speedy recovery and return to your home and family. What a wonderful inspiration you have been to all of us. Your cup surely is running over, being surrounded by God's love and all the great support you have from your circle of friends is a blessing beyond compare. Looking forward to more blogging of your progress. We are continually grateful for the the opportunity to share your journey. Thanks to you and Dan. God Bless, Love Elsa
Look at you Jen - you look great - and the half turban could be a new fashion look. :) Go shake you booty as you walk the halls! (After four kids, I am sure all modesty is gone) :) Absolutely amazing you are! You have been such an inspiration for the rest of us. Stay strong and keep flashing those doctors and nurses your beautiful smile. Prayer and well wishes!! Lisa R
Do you ever take a bad picture? You are AMAZING! Ditto to Kathy's comment. When I was in the hospital last year I can't tell you how happy I was to have TWO gowns to do exactly what Kathy recommended. WE LOVE YOU AND ARE SO PROUD OF YOU! The Butlers
Hi Jenn, You look absolutely fabulous which I knew you would. I'm so glad you only have half of a turban so hopefully that cuts the itching in half and you won't need the infamous chop stick. My husband used to to say that I looked sexy in my turban so I'm sure Dan feels the same especially with that hot gown--HA! You have tons of hair so Amy will be able to do all kinds of styles for you. You have been in my thoughts and prayers tons and everyone elses around Tipp. Keep us posted on how you are doing can't wait to hear all of the details. God bless you and your family! Lynn
Jen - Austin had a great basketball game! It was great to see him and the other boys there. Nolan, Gordon and Landon brought me your dad's camera to show me a picture of you, their beautiful mother. They are so proud of you!! Lisa
Yep - ask for another gown - works wonders. Although if it's cold an actual nice warm robe would probably feel better and not be near as drafty haha. :-) Lookin' good Jen, looking good. I pray walking in the halls will be easily done. God Bless!
Jen...you look amazing! I can absolutely see your positive spirit shining through. You are an inspiration. I'm so sorry I didn't know about this sooner. I am staying on top of this blog to make sure I know the updates on you. I was so touched by your stories of support from your friends and family as you worked your way to surgery day.
I haven't been to church in a few years, but I took my family today with you in mind. I said a prayer and I will continue to keep my thoughts on you for a speedy recovery!
Stay strong! You have amazing support and you deserve all this love!
Jen, You look great! You are such an inspiration to soooo many of us. If we could only have an ounce of your attitude=) Just think of your NEW, comfy bed you get to go home to~ (not to mention all your handsom little men) Love ya, Rach
Jenn...You look fab as always, I agree can u even take a bad picture. What an amazing transition already. Wow!! but hey we knew you would be ok. Many, many Prayers still coming your way. It was great seeing your Mom and boys at the game tonight. Austin did great as always. Take care and cant wait to see that smile and hear your voice in person..Sharon Hopper
Jen - your smile is so beautiful. And that gown! You should see if you can borrow about 35 of them and maybe all of us at Mom2Mom can wear one during your first meeting back!! Kidding aside, I cannot tell you what an inspiration you are to me. Can't wait to welcome you back home! Blessings, Tracey W.
OK...I'm officially jealous! You look 500% better than I do after I have a simple C-section! You are looking fabulous and I'm so glad to hear all of the great news! Melissa Tolle
Wow, really? You just had brain surgery and you're sitting there with that wonderful smile on your face! So happy to see it! I'm not getting much done around here because I keep checking the blog for another one of Dan's updates. He is cracking me up! Take care of yourself and get lots of rest. Love and miss ya! Amy Powell
Hey Jen! It is GREAT to see you smiling! Your family support and your positive attitude are just amazing. I think of you often, check the blog and shared your story with my family and friends. As you know, we are living in Cincinnati, so all of our prayers only have to travel a short distance to your hospital. Stay strong! Kasey Thorner-Maynes
