Movin' up and movin' out!

Eja has just gotten her chest tubes out, half of her staples removed and fitted for a "turtle shell" to help her with her back. They feel that she is stable enough to move out of the ICU. Her doctors have said that she needs to be observed for a short while longer and then, she is okay to be transferred to Idaho Falls. There are some important details about that though. The McKay-Dee Hospital is an approved provider as is EIRMC and they see no necessity for the transfer. So...for her to get back to Idaho Falls, a helicopter transfer is $10,000 and an ambulance ride is $3,000. Eja and Neil would love for her to be back. All donations received will go towards getting Eja Gae home where she wants to be. We are so grateful for your thoughts, prayers and consideration. We love and appreciate you all!
