News from Utah

April has been moved from the ICU to the CCU (Critical Care Unit). The Doctors still don't know exactly what is causing the problems to the heart, but they do know how to treat the symptoms with medications. Apes has been able to get up and walk around a little and seems to have gotten a little bit of her strength back. Yippee!!

Eric's makeshift bed.

Eric this might just get you nominated for Father/Husband of the Year award.

This pic is of Flat Stanley. Flat Stanley is a character from a book that Emee is reading at school. Stanley can travel by mail because he is "Flat". Stanley was mailed to Utah to stay and visit Eric's Sister Casey, but when April decided to take a visit to Utah Stanley came to visit her. Emee, Stanley is in good hands with your Mama.

Hannah and Emee didn't want their Mama going without a Christmas tree for the Holidays so they made and mailed a Christmas Tree. Eric and April have this tree hanging in their hospital room.

Annie's Commentary...
The other day my 5 year old son Kade and I were talking about how much he misses April and then he says to me, "Mom, April reminds me of the word Joy." This got me thinking and I decided that in honor of April (because I know she has so many fans) we all write in our comments a word that reminds us of April and why.

We love you Apes keep getting better!! :)
