Hi all!  Mom is set to come home tomorrow!  This almost seems surreal.  Although still very weak, Mom is strong enough to come home.  We will have physical therapists come 5 days a week as well as daily nurses, the we will taper them off once Mom builds up her stamina.  Mom is very excited but nervous.  We tell her there are no worries as she needs to remember how well she did the last time she came home in December.  We will update y’all daily on her progress.

On another note we are participating in the Ovarian Cycle Ride to Change the Future.  As you know this journey has been quite the rollercoaster.  Our family is committed to making sure another Mother, Daughter, Sister, Grandmother, or Family NEVER has to go through this again.  With that, we have formed a team to participate in the Ovarian Cycle: Ride to Change the Future on April 24, 2010.  Our family and team would be honored if you would consider donating to our team: Devoted Daughters (See Links).  We will be riding in honor of our mother, Regina and in tribute to Kim Pelfrey.  Kim is the mother of our dear friend Cassi, who lost her battle with Ovarian Cancer 9 years to the day of the Ovarian Cycle Ride.
