Monday, July 3, 2006

Molly has had a string of good days. She becomes more lucid every day and is sooooo ready to move forward. Today she stood again with the physical therapists. She stood twice and the second time, she was doing it all on her own for about a minute and a half. She was so excited and happy about that.
We didn't get to see Glendale's fireworks last night because we just didn't have the right angle from her window. We may get to see some on Tuesday. In case you were wondering, this is for me more than Molly. I have always loved fireworks. What great entertainment for free!
Last night Molly had a good time with a few of her friends that stayed late. She gets tired so easliy, that she has been kicking people out of her room. But it was fun to see her responding just like Molly.
The fireman who was at the prom came to see Molly today. It was good to meet him. He stayed for quite a while and visited with Molly. He was awed by her courage and strength at the scene.
Between Jack and Steve (the fireman) they kept Molly alive. We owe you two everything. Thank you.
Enjoy the holiday and be safe. Kiss the kids often.

I still think about Molly everyday, and I am hoping to come visit her very soon. It is good to hear she is getting better. I told some of the people at my pool about the swim-a-thon and they have decided to do one at Foxridge. So we are going to have a mini swim-a-thon in mid July with the swim team here in efforts to help raise a little more money!Everyone has been asking me about her everyday and they are always willing to help out. I hope this can help you guys out a bit. Tell Molly Aquawolves says hi again, and Lauren and I will be coming by as soon as we can!

great news! i'm glad molly is more herself everyday. having fun with friends and "staying up late" is just the ticket.

HAPPY 4th of July Blooms,
You've all shared so much, been through so much, suffered so much and for today, I hope you once again, as i'm sure you have many times these past many weeks, remind yourselves how wonderful it is that you're all alive and together. Molly continues to improve and that is so so wonderful. My best to you all today and everyday. Hang in there, one step at a time....

Happy 4th to all the Blooms. Heck, let's include Jill, Rachel and Frani, too. It is great to hear that improvement is happening on a day to day basis. Keep it up. We are rooting for you.

Frani and Katy, I, too, watched the game. I liked it. Not high scoring, but for a European sport, much better than cricket. I was glad to see the game ended with a couple of goals. I am not a real fan of the tie breaker. Oh well.

I hope the fireworks were great.

Love you all,
Jay

Hey Bloom family! I hope you did get to see some fireworks. Just finished watching Invesco's fireworks show and hoped you all might have seen it. It's so wonderful to hear that Molly is making progress! Keep it up Molly!

Call me Bob or Bernie when you're ready to get out for some lunch or dinner.

Hello Bob, Bernie, Katy and Molly, Happy 4th of July! I am so glad to hear the news is good for a few day's in a row. Molly will be home before you know it.
I'm working on a new idea for people who don't work out, but want to join a gym. I just got an impersonal trainer. We meet at the gym but don't talk to each other. Then he works out alone and I go home.
Stay strong and stay cool,
