She is awake


Kyara is awake at times, and we are trying to communicate. She still has the breathing tube in her throat, so she can't talk. Her hands are also restrained so that she will not pull out any of the tubes. This means she can't gesture very well with her hands, either. This afternoon she opened an envelope with her toes... maybe she is part monkey! (Hee, Hee!)
The doctors also placed another tube in her nose that is smaller and yellow. This one will be used for feedings. The other tube in her nose was used for draining acid. I think it will be coming out sometime soon.

Well, I do not know how to open an envelope with my feet. Hope Kyara can teach me how to do it very soon. It is amazing how many things she can do, she is young and very strong and funny, I am old and do not know how to do these things.
Love

I am glad to hear that she's coming along the healing path as well as she has. What a difficult journey so far for all of you. She is a strong girl; she must be destined to do many amazing things! (Besides opening envelopes with her feet). Well wishes for all of you always, :)Stephanie Rosehart

Kyara,
I was so happy to see your beautiful eyes open a little tonight. I can't wait until you are able to sit up and not have all the restraints on you and that you can wave at us here in Georgia. We are all praying for your full recovery which we all know you can make it through this. Thanks Mom for that picture. It is what we have all been waiting for to see her looking back at us. We love you Kyara and miss you so much at school. Keep fighting!

Kyara,

It is so wonderful to see those bright beautiful eyes. We have missed those so much! We are amazed by your talents as usual. Maybe you can soon show us how you open envelopes with your feet! You are one smart girl!!! You know we have plenty of envelopes in our writing center and all of your friends here would love a lesson from you in that. :-)

We are still missing you. You just continue to get better, and we know we will get to see you soon. You are in our prayers baby girl!

We love you,
Mrs. Carlisle, Mrs. Laurie, and all your Pre-K Pals
