Baby steps are good!
Robyn had a stable day yesterday which was nice. She had some small steps, but the best thing is she didn't get any worse.
She did very well overnight - lower heart rate, better blood pressure, and her kidney's seem to be functioning. All good stuff!
This morning they were able to take her off 2 of her 4 blood pressure meds. White blood count is down and her blood gases were stable.
We are hopeful for a productive day and additional steps in the right direction.
I'll be reading the entries from the blog to Robyn today. Not sure how much she can hear us, but we are keeping positive vibes in the room and your well wishes will help.
Today we are thankful for Robyn...a wonderful wife, mother, daughter, sister, grandaughter, niece, cousin, and friend.

Laura-I can't thank you enough for all these updates. I have met you before--but it was a while ago. My name is Jill Lindstrom and we used to live just across the street from Robyn in Quantico. My husband is Patrick and we have three kids--Jack, age 6 and twins Maggie and Ben, age 4. We used to play with Lola outside every day...We are watching your blog religiously and eagerly await every day's update. We have been writing to Robyn on her facebook page and praying for her like crazy. We are praying for Robyn like we've never prayed before. I know you are going to read her the blog comments today--do you have access to her facebook account? I have been leaving comments for here there every day. I'm not sure if you can read those to her or not...I'll start leaving them here on the blog instead so you can read them to her. God bless you and your family. We wish you a very blessed Thanksgiving day.
Happy Thanksgiving, Robyn! We are so thankful that you had a better night. Way to GO!!! We are so proud of you. You are fighting so hard and it's working and it's worth it. Keep it up, Robyn! God bless you and your family today. Please, God, keep Robyn's spirits up and help her turn these "baby steps" of better health into lifelong good ... Read Morehealth. Bless her family and friends for being so loving and strong. We are so blessed with the news that Robyn has made some progress. We are so thankful for Robyn on this Thanksgiving day. Amen. We love you Robyn. You will have a special place in our hearts and prayers at our Thanksgiving table today. Hang in there, girl. Keep fighting! Much love.
I wish you a happy Thanksgiving. We will pray for you.

Hi Robyn,
I'm praying for your speedy recovery and wishing you were here for Thanksgiving. Get well soon~
Love, Jan
Tonight all prayers were said for you. We are glad to hear that you are doing better - baby steps are still steps forward. Sara says she misses you and wants you to have fixed lungs. She loves you so very much. You have always been such a huge part of her and our lives. When you find someone who you can truly trust your children with and never doubt them it is amazing. You have shown us how to love and to live. We pray that you get stronger each and every day. YOU CAN AND WILL DO THIS. PLEASE FIGHT AS HARD AS YOU CAN. WE COULD NEVER IMAGINE OUR WORLD WITHOUT THE LIGHT AND THE BEAUTY YOU BRING TO IT. We continue to pray for Lo and for Aaron, Gigi and Laura and your extended family. We love you Robyn.
Elena, Scott, Sara and Ben
