A Little Help From Kay!

Thank you to Devin's brother who had a great idea! Kay is doing so well and talking so much that she is now going to help by telling us about her progress to keep the website updated! She's amazing!

Kay is getting stronger and stronger and walking more and more. Kay told us she walked 25 feet with a little bit of assistance at physical therapy this week. Today she walked even more- 132 feet over 6 trips to the ladies room with Devin's assistance. She's doing so well!

Kay continued to talk a lot a lot this weekend! She was enjoying her first snow day (her favorite!) and had great phone conversations with Cindy and Monica! She asks lots of questions and is interested in what everyone else is doing. Kay even remembered that Monica lived in a different time zone-asking her what time it was there and then asking Devin what time it was in NY!

We started telling Kay about this website and she seemed truly amazed. When she heard the names of everyone that was leaving her notes she said "no way", "wow" and "really?". Not surprisingly she asked if she was on the website and we explained that it was all about her and her progress and that it had her pictures on it and was called We Love You Kay! She thought that was amazing. She even asked if it talked about her scenario (her words exactly). We explained that so many people were concerned about her and supporting her and we were updating them with all her progress and now we were going to rely on her to help us update it.

Kay hasn't seen the website yet, but when she looked at Devin's computer when she heard about it she could see right away that he had 8 windows opened....it is a Sunday during football season!

As you now hear from Kay herself, she's making amazing progress, talking more and walking a ton!

Keep letting her know how strong she is and how proud of her we are!

More updates from her in a few days!

We Love You Kay!

Kay,
I am so happy to read about your ongoing progress. You are truly a miracle. You inspire me.

We only met a few times, but now I feel something different then just "my husbands, friends sister". I feel like we are friends.

I look forward to reading this blog each time it updates. I look at your pictures and think that you are probably the most beautiful bride I have ever seen.

From the my heart and soul, I want you to recover 100% in every way. I am sure it will not be easy, but you have so much support, that it is impossible not to.

May God bless you today and always.

Much love,
Linda Tritto

Kay,

You are really wonderful. I was just overwhelmed with joy to have a chance to actually speak with you on Saturday. Remember I told you how much you improve each time I see you, it is truly amazing.

I know everyone will join me in praying for a very special Christmas Miracle and that is that you will be home with Devin in your new home for Christmas.

The way you are improving so rapidly with your walking might actually make it happen.

I will keep praying for that.

Love you alot,

Mama Sheehy

Hi Kay
I hope you are enjoying your visit with Mom and Cindy today.
I know you have been asking about going home, but just hang in there alittle while longer, the more you can do for yourself the easier it will be for you when you go home to that BEAUTIFUL new home.

What a tru MIRACLE.....
we were all excited to hear you are eating real food finally.

What with Walking, Eating AND Talking (nice and not so nice words) you will be out of there before you realize it.

All this in under 6 weeks is truly
remarkable. Keep up the good job.
Love ya

Kay,

So proud of you, you truly are a miracle girl. I love reading this blog, it makes me feel so close to you all even though I'm miles away.

With how fast your making all this progress chances are you'll all ready for Santa. :)

In the blog it mentions a snow day. I've heard about those, never seen one though. It's either rain or slush and sometiimes even sun at Christmas so I'm very jealous.

Hope all the family are keeping well.

Love you all,

God bless you Kay,

Love,

your lil cuz

Just thinking of you-I'm always thinking of you-and decided to tell you how exciting all of your progress is. I just can't believe how strong and determined you are-Reading this blog every day (sometimes I read them a few times a day because they make me so happy) reinforces what loving, caring, beautiful family and friends you have. You are so loved Kay-I'm sure that's part of your amazing recovery.
Keep up the amazing work-I can't wait to visit you again.

Big hugs
