Dayle's recovery has been progressing well physically, as we know she has amazing drive and is determined to return to her strong and healthy self, this being the reason she is with us today, I am truly blessed to still have my beautiful daughter in my life, sadly Dayles progression mentally has been slow she has been diagnosed with severe aphasia and is in need of intense rehabilitation well into the future in order to help her live her life in a productive way. She was taken by Nic and Kim yesterday for her appointment at Bascon Palmer Institute to have her eyes tested by a neuro opthomologist, she was scanned to determine the eye connection to her brain, the scan showed damage to the peripheral vision in her right eye caused by the initial trauma to her brain, she is unable to see to the right of her eye, she also has double vision. Glasses are being prescribed which will give her 20/30 vision and this should increase her quality of life considerably. We are still waiting to hear if Nic and Suzanne's immigration application has been successful thus enabling them to live in America and to care for Dayle and the children.
I am lost for words when attempting to express my gratitude for the generosity and support shown for Dayle, the outpouring of love towards my daughter has been truly overwhelming, without your kind donations we surely would have floundered by now. Dayle has always been a beautiful and caring daughter to me, with her zest for life she has surrounded herself with many wonderful and loyal friends, some of which I have been fortunate enough to have met and spent good times with, I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your continued support for Dayle and for us, her family, during this difficult and life changing journey. With love and appreciation.... Diane (Dayles Mom)###
