8/21 Marissa Update

Marissa has officially moved out of the ICU and into her own room, 481 west.  That means no more visiting hours, no 2 person in the room limit, and I think she can receive flowers.  Although hold off for now on sending them until I ask if she can get 'em because of her lungs.  There's more freedom period, which she'll really like.  I'll have an update on her condition later tonight.   And FYI- because I fly back to Anchorage tomorrow afternoon  Marissa will be taking over this blog on her myspace page to write her own updates.  I'll post that address on here later tonight, so you  can check that when you want.  Talk to you then.

Yay! Marissa that is so awesome for you to finally be out of there. Keep improving and you will be out of the hospital in NO TIME :) I love you and am still praying

Marissa, I guess I am going to have to join myspace and be your friend so I can keep updated on you. Kasey tells me I am too old for myspace.....HA I think I could get an exception in this case! I am glad you are doing better. Kasey has already inked you in on the Garage Calendar that she is making a trip to see you in a week or so. I know she is ready. Much love to you, our other "baby girl". Keep on keeping on!
