What a great day.  Lisa was in great spirits.  She played foosball with her Uncle, and catch with her brother.  She really enjoys tormenting David.  We get a kick out of it and David enjoys teasing her back.  

Her speech is not totally clear yet, but is getting better.  She is doing well with feeding herself yet still has the feeding tube on.  St Mary's still provides 24/7 watch on her so she does not pull off the tube again.  The nurse this evening thinks maybe they will not need to watch her 24/7 for much longer.  Lisa does not pull at the tubes as much as she use to.

Peter was not released from Strong today as he thought.  It may be on Sunday or Monday.  

David will go on Monday to see about removing his back brace.  He is looking forward to taking a real shower.
