Hi all

Hope you're all alright.

We've some wonderful news about Amanda's condition!

Amanda is still in a coma and she's showing good signs of improvement especially when she squeezed ours and one of the nurses and doctors hand earlier this afternoon.

We'll keep you all updated on Amanda's condition

Wonderful news, is Amanda responding and squeezing when you ask her too, when my son started doing this, the nurses and Dr's referred to this as 'Obeying' and its one of the final stages before you come out of the coma

My son started to open his eyes the following day and made progress from them on.

Thinking of you all and praying for Amanda's full recovery

Hi Dam0309 & HopeforTony

Amanda is defiantly responding to us and the nurses and doctors by squeezing our hands and one of the nurses and doctors have told us earlier today that "She's defiantly obeying and she's in the final stage of her coma and could wake up any day now"

Thank you both for your ongoing prayers for us all and Amanda's full recovery.

Hi HopeforTony

Everything is alright and Amanda woke up from her coma 6 days ago. She's semi-conscious but hasn't said anything to us yet.

Thank you again for your ongoing prayers for us all and Amanda's full recovery.

Incredible news! What a fighter she is. Remember, just take half a day at a time. The road to recovery is a slow one and there will still be lots of unknowns at this stage but just keep the faith, hold strong and ensure you allow time to keep yourself energised. Take care .x. Healing hugs to Amanda .x.

This is wonderful news. I recently came across a research paper that said that hiking up micronutrients during and after coma can produce incredible results - maybe it is worth speaking to Amanda's team and asking them to bring a neuro-nutritionist on board?

Wishing all of you the very best and praying for Amanda's recovery x
