Surgery and Radiation

In a short update, yesterday was a pretty epic day here. Jenni was moving her toes and was able to keep some Jello down and we shared a day full of smiles and chatting between visiting hours, tests, and naps. We were able to get her talking to a few missed friends and family and other than the epic amount of pain, she has a good day she says. We got a few more puppet shows that are on the top of Jenn's favorite list but I will have to upload them later when I have a bit more time. I would like to thank the Puppet man for making her smile so much though. I will admit that I was a little jealous that everyone talked to her and wore her out but apparently I found out that my paper I was having her edit may just have been that boring and put her to sleep instead.
Earlier this morning, Jenn underwent another surgery to place some screws into the bone in her leg to help prevent the femur from breaking more. These will be closely monitored and eventually removed when her bones can handle the pressure themselves. Everything went pretty smoothly but it wasn't until after the surgery when I was told that Jenn has opted to stay the extra week and continue back up with radiation. Apparently her Jack knew as well as Sue, my sister's nurse and friend here, but it still came to a shock to me. I guess It just amazes me that even though she knows the odds, she still wants to fight. I am not sure I myself could ever be that brave or put up with this much pain. I haven't said much about it to Jenn today because she has been pretty groggy and in a great deal of pain but I do plan on bringing it up when she starts feeling better. I think I at least deserve to know what it is she wants so I can figure out how to make it as bearable as possible.
For those who wanted to leave Jenn a message, you may do so here or in our email and we can read them the best we can but I would like to Let Jen F. know that we are able to sneak a few voice mails in here and there so if you would like to, that is your go ahead. Please don't spam the phones though. ;)
I am going to get off here though because I need sleep and to head back over to the hospital bright and early. I finally broke down and started staying with Sue. I will be staying here the next few weeks until we bring Jenn home, hopefully May 8th. Cant Wait!
