Journal entry by Mary Cheasick —
Kelly asked me to share this today. Please continue to keep Kelly and her caregivers in your thoughts and prayers. Mary
From Kelly:
Thank you to everyone that has followed this website. To think how close I was to death and to have everyone following this, it makes my heart happy. Thank you to the various nurses and doctors in this journey and for making me live and feel ok again. Thank you to my therapists at Bethesda and Regions and Courage Center for getting me strong again. I can’t believe the outpouring of support I have had from everyone and it means a lot to me. This road is a long one and it’s a hard road with this brain injury but I’m getting stronger every day and I feel confident I will “get back to normal” soon. This has me appreciating all the little things in life and all the people I know! My right leg is still weaker than my left and my right arm is weaker as well. But I am trying to work out and make these things stronger, too. It’s all a process and I am doing the work necessary. I hope to get back to the cities soon and get back to my apartment that I miss. Right now, I’m in Moorhead, my hometown at my mom’s house.
