Some Perspective From Reenie

Hi Andy,

I told Jim about your concern about Alison's apparent setback(s) over the past several weeks.  He said that Alison's behavior and condition are not unexpected.  They can all arise from her many infections, long time hospitalization, and her brain injury.  He said that every positive development is a miracle.

I also remember being told at Hopkins to expect ups and downs -- over the course of days, weeks, months . (even over hours, which we certainly have experienced, and started experiencing even in the early days)

Love,
Reenie
