It would be nice if every day were a good day, but I guess that's not realistic. Posted by PapaSolo on the Michigan board early this morning:

News about TrailTroll from her sister, Lori.: Not a good day. Totally unresponsive. Neurologist says this can happen. She was very alert the last two days and now she's tired. Let's hope that's all. EEG and MRI today.

Sending more hugs and lovin's. <3

It's nice to follow up the last post with a more encouraging word. PapaSolo posted this earlier this evening on the Michigan board:

From Lori: Very good day! First day in a slant chair. She (TrailTroll) was very interactive. She wants to come home! Tomorrow being Monday, she'll get the full intake from all the therapists. She's getting better with hand dexterity, so she has been using sign language to talk to me. Sort of.

PapaSolo just posted another positive report on TrailTroll. Definitely a long struggle, but it's so encouraging that she's apparently past those days of not responding at all.

From Lori: Update on my beloved sister (TrailTroll) who suffered a traumatic brain injury 4 weeks ago yesterday. She has been moved to LTAC - long term acute care. She's still on the trach tube so she can't talk. Can't stand on her own. BUT her memory issues are reducing and her ability to write is improving. Big help with communication. She keeps saying she wants to come home and that kills me. It will probably be weeks. But she's alive and very slowly improving. Please keep up your good thoughts and prayers 👍

I haven't re-posted every single one of PapaSolo's reports on TrailTroll to the US board, but this one is a must-read for sure!

From Lori: Update on my sister (TrailTroll) - Mom and I round the corner and head down the hall to Kristin's room and notice someone waving at us. Someone walking on their own with a walker. Sister. 😂 She walked a good distance. Since she was on mobile oxygen they put her in the wheelchair and said to take her for a spin! She loved it. She ate food today! French toast and milk. They downsized the trach tube! Makes it easier to talk. She had a fruit cup and yogurt. Sat in the chair twice! When the trach is done they'll move her four floors down to in patient rehab. Don't know when. Great day!!

One thing to add about my sister - the Miracle Girl - is 4 weeks ago yesterday they were explaining to my Mom, brothers and I how you end the life of a loved one on life support!! Today she ate a fruit cup😍❤️👏👍
