Britney just moved both of her legs. She hasn't moved them since she has been off ECMO. There was a CT scan about that time that had showed a possible stroke in the leg territory of her brain, but now she is moving them!!!. Arielle stayed the night at the hospital last night and also saw her move her toes!!!!!!! Arielle read to her a lot yesterday and she looked at her and stayed awake the whole time she was reading to her. She also saw her smile when Arielle was singing to her last night.

  5. John,this is such wonderful news !!! I just know that Britney will come around soon. Now that her body is healing ,her mind will catch up. You and the girls are doing such a great job with all the talking and reading.I'm very anxious to seee what she will do when her Dad gets back to Arizona,since she was responding well to him before he had to leave. Keep up the great job...as always you are always in my thoughts and prayers.The candle is still lit.

  6. We just recently heard about what happened. What a trial. You guys are staying so positive and are example to all of us. Thanks for keeping us updated. We are keeping you guys in our prayers (our boys say to please bless Jonas' mommy in the hospital every time they say their prayers) and wish for the best.
