Woo Hoo Natalie!!!

Michelle posted a note for Natalie that says: Thanks for the update Mark. I had a feeling they (the nurses) would have her up today and trying to walk. It is so good for her, as I am sure they have told you-so she doesn't develop any complications, esp pneumonia.

I know she is in pain and uncomfortable. Please give her my best and let her know that she is always in my thoughts as she goes through this tough recovery. Each day will get better and better for her, and she will get stronger each day. Baby steps!
Lots of hugs and love,

Mich
