Hooray!  Look who got out of bed today! She is smiling for the first time in a while. Thank you all for your thoughts, prayers, and uplifting comments.  I know that Jen will have plenty to write about when she is able.

You don't know me, but when our friend Montserrat asked for prayers for you, our family jumped on board! As a Labor and Delivery nurse and high risk OB nurse, I am amazed at your story. You are a walking miracle! Hang in there girl and keep getting stronger everyday.

I've only had a couple of comparatively minor surgeries in my life and I was such a baby each time!!! I HATED getting up, I HATED walking, blah, blah, blah...I just wanted to sleep and lay still and let my systems figure themselves out without effort on my part. You are a super brave mom, Jenifer, and you have given me new insights on life and courage and motherhood! Thank you for that, and THANK YOU for fighting so hard, because we all need you, especially your beautiful family! (Got your name re-listed in Denver, plus Ben and Todd)
Loves and prayers always! -Mary

Oh Jen, SO excited to see this! You made it out of bed today and are one step closer to recovering! :)

Sunday, before and during church, it was so fun watching your family. Your girls looked so happy, while holding Grandma's hand while finding a place to sit before the meeting. Your son, respectfully standing so straight and tall while passing the sacrament.

You have so many thinking and praying for you. We love you and know you can do this!

Just want you to know what an inspiration you are to me. I find myself thinking of you and feeling greater desires to walk closer to Christ. I've read many of your blog posts over the past few weeks of finding your blog. You are able to express your feelings and emotions in mothering, in being a wife and all the challenges of life. Thank you for sharing. When I read these I feel strengthened and understood and uplifted. Sanctified.

You are in my prayers. I'm so happy that you are still here...
Heavenly Father has truly sent you angels. I wish I could be one of those angels, just to bring you comfort.

Thank you Jenifer. Keep fighting. It will get better. Your baby Benjamin is beautiful.

I'm so happy you're up and doing well. Every couple of days I get a panic attack because I haven't checked your blog in a couple of days. Then I catch up and breathe a sigh of relief. So good to hear you're doing better and that our prayers are working! Keep up the good work super-girl. You rock!
