Happy to see us

We visited Joy yesterday and she was in the hall of the Care Center and was pleased to see us.   She was tired and started to sleep while in the wheel chair.  We asked the care lady if she could put her in bed.  As soon as she was in bed, she was like she was last week, smiling and happy to have us there.  A friend of ours whose mother is also in the same facility just a couple rooms away, came by before we arrived and waved at Joy and she said Joy returned the wave in her own way..  It is so amazing.  They are definitely teaching her sign language and apparently she is using it in a limited way.  We are pleased.   Please pray for Margie.  She did not have a good night because of the shoulder pain. If it is the Lord's will, we would be very happy to have the surgery sooner than May 9.  Thanks for praying about this with us.
