Update #16

I will write a more detailed update later.  For now, I just would like to send out this note on her rehab news: Nearly 100% sure that she will be air-lifted to Atlanta on Monday.  She will start rehab there at the Shepherd Center.

Con’t.: Well, I am all excited about Jitka’s progress.  She has improved so much within the last week.  She is eating her meals and talking up a storm now.  Of course, the meals are small and takes her two hours for half of it to eat, and it takes a rather hard effort to form words and careful listening to hear them. But she is getting there!  Now she will be off to this wonderful facility to learn to function with her spinal cord injury.  We are very thankful for Rose, (social woker at the PCM Hospital) and the BlueCross insurance/staff who made it possible.  I will try to post here her departure details in case any of you who are here in NC want to wish her farewell at the Greenville airport, or wave out of your windows:) 

I have another information I mention tonight.  Our friend Dave and a local lawfirm spent a considerable amount of time to create a Trust for Jitka.  It is called Jitka Virag Recovery Fund Trust.  Thank you for all who were involved in this work and those who contributed to it.  It is opened at the RBC Centura Bank, 2390 Stantonsburg Rd., Greenville NC 27834. The routing number is 053 100 850, and the account number is 025 5412250.  If any of you need any information on the Trust please e-mail me at jani.virag@gmail.com 

Good night.  Jani
