It was werid to wake up about 3 months later not really know where I was at. I think Tabor told me he had to tell me about Taylen twice and I only remember him telling me once when I asked how the babe was. I think I knew but didn't really want to believe it until he told me then I had to accept it. After I found about the Detroit Tigers going to the world series, I asked Tabor how the Lions did just to make sure I was really not halluenting (spelled wrong) but they didn't let me down they did not so well. I do't really remember alot about being in the burn unit because when I woke up I was only there a week before I moved to Mary Free Bed. Some of things I remember about neing in the burn unit is I found out where the camera was and when I could not find by call button I would wave to the camera so I could get someone to come to me. I remember one time that the ot and a other person had me sitting on the edge of the bed and I was talking with them and I heard Tabor come in the room and before I saw him I was like Hi Honey. He walked in and saw me sitting up on the edge of the bed and we both cried.
I don't really remember Christmas but I can tell you it took us two days to have it. And I had Santa hat that one of my nurses gave me. Then shortly before New Years I moved to Mary Free Bed. But I was the only one who was excited about going there. Tabor, Mom and Marty were all happy and so was the burn unit staff but I felt like everyone was abondending me because I didn't really understand that this move was a good one until they explained it to me better. I was actually suppose to go to other facility before Mary Free Bed (I refere to it has step two) but they thought it would be better for me to go straight to Free Bed. And so they moved me there!
More to come tomorrow...

How did you feel when you first looked in the mirror and saw your burns, on top of everything else you were having to come to terms with? Was it hard seeing it? Or was it minor in comparison to everything else? How long did you wait to see your burns after you woke up?
Julie, these are courageous posts.
