Jaci's point of view

When you're phone rings after 7 and you see its your sister who is in bed early,  you know it's not good news.  When i got the call my whole world felt so different.  My mom is strong and very independent and now i knew i had to be there.  Sara and i took off the next morning. I knew it would be hard to see her but i also knew in my head it was much worse. She still looks like my mom but her smile isn't the same,  she dosent talk the same and she dosent always respond the way you expect.  The first night i was here I knew i wanted to be with her.  Happily she rested pretty well through the night.  Today  (Thursday) she seems to be getting her spunk back.  When asked to put her hands in the air she responded with "like i just don't care? " that's my mom :) the fact that she is progressing and that the stroke was massive is a true testament of God's presence.  Hopefully tomorrow she will make it to the rehabilitation center and start what I am sure will be a long journey. She's got the will power and attitude to do it though
