About this Site

This blog has been set up for Dale P's friends and family as a resource for information on Dale's condition. Updates will be posted about once a week. As most of you know Dale fell from her bicycle on July 30, 2008. No one witnessed the incident, so the best assumption we can make is that it was a bad fall off the bike. As a result of this fall, Dale is suffering from Tramatic Brain Injury (TBI). If you would like to read more about TBI, you can do a google search for TBI or check these web sites:

At this time you are not able to post messages. When Dale is well enough to read, posting will be activated and we'd love to have you send your thoughts and cheerful greetings. We hope that will be soon. Thank you for all your well wishes and concern. It is heart warming to know Dale has so many caring friends.

Eating a bit - mmmmmm

Good news! Dale has started eating some at meals. The feeding tube is still in to ensure she's getting proper nutrition. Family or staff are with Dale at meal times as a precaution to guard against choking or problems. But, this is a positive step. Dale is talking a bit, but not a lot because she tires so easily. We're grateful that there have been no new complications this week.
