Just let her know that the greatest gift would be to get better, and to be there for all the future anniversary's, births, and all those life events that really, in the long run, are so much more important.

Yes, my daughter has arranged with the florest to have a small flower arrangement on her chair.

And that is great advice, I'll pass that along to my daughter. Thanks!

So, today's the day. The rehearsal is tonight, and tomorrow is the wedding. I think we have all resigned to the fact that Teresa won't be there. She is out of ICU and improving every day, but she still can't get out of bed or stand. I think I have it all set up to skype the wedding so she can see it and feel like a part of it in some way. She keeps saying it's not the same while crying, but it's the best we can do.
