This is a blog intended for family and friends of our sister, Karen 'buzie' Goff. She was in a motorcycle accident on May 25, 2006 while on her way to visit our father in NC. We hope to post regular updates for family and friends on Buzie's current condition. Keep positive thoughts in your mind and heart for her!

update- 6.20.06

hi all:

just wanted to give you a quick update. not a whole lot new today except that mom is being treated for an infection. it's nothing too major, but she was running a fever. so, she's getting some medication now...should clear up in a day or two.
because of the infection...she's slept most of the day yesterday and today. the nurses and doctors say that's normal, though. nothing to worry about.

aunt cathy and dad checked out two more rehab facilites today (frazier in louisville and rehab of indiana in indianapolis). they both sound like great places. they'll be comparing notes and figuring out (along with help from the nurses and doctors) which place will be the best for mom. we'll be selecting a facility by friday....the earliest she could be transferred is next monday (i think!).

over the next few days, the hope is to plug the trach (still waiting to have that done) and get this infection cleared up. once she's medically ready and approved by a rehab facility....we'll arrange for her transfer.

keep the positive thoughts and prayers going for mom. she's fighting every day!! we love you mom!!

much love to you all,
xoxox

Thank you for the updates -- I know I have been partly responsible for causing all the microwave tumors on Cathy and Chris' ears! I d to keep calling and bugging them for updates so this is nice to check each day. We are all praying for Aunt Buz's recovery. We are so impressed by all the love from the family that surrounds her.
