Journal entry by The Shatzkes Family —
This past Wednesday, after 99 days in the ICU and rehabilitation, Shira came home. It is an extremely monumental moment in her journey and her progress is certainly coming along. My family and I are so grateful for all the prayers that have been channeled in Shira’s direction. There’s no doubt in our minds that the collective goodness of others has brought Shira home.
While we are elated at her homecoming, the injuries Shira sustained, combined with the setbacks she suffered while in the hospital, have left her in a very fragile state physically, mentally and cognitively. She requires constant assistance for even the smallest of tasks. Her healing is not even close to done yet and she has a long way to go in this process. I ask that you continue to keep Shira in your thoughts and prayers as she enters this next phase of her healing.
