Joy Update

Information provided by Sharon Eisenhart from Gloria

I just got a call from Gloria and they ask me to update everyone. Joy will be leaving ICU today and going to the 3rd floor. Last time she got a transplant she was in ICU for several weeks. Joy is eating regular food today. Last time they couldn't get her to eat. The family can tell her new organs are working well. Joy is in more pain today because the medicine from surgery is wearing off. Yesterday they had her walk from the bed to the chair. Today they had her up walking. The operating staff said the doctor was amazing during the surgery. When the family thanked him he pointed upwards. Normally the surgery would last 4-5 hours, hers was 14. When the doctor sees her he says she is a miracle. They told him there are multitudes of prayers going up for Joy. Gloria said she wouldn't be surprised if Joy is allowed to move to the apartment on Tuesday. Last time she was in the hospital for 3 months. Joy is proof that God answers prayers!! I also wanted to let everyone know who is going to Hoss's on Monday that there will be a large card there for Joy that everyone should sign.
