UPDATE on Megan Litterer

In case you are unaware, on Wednesday morning Megan Litterer (2006 TWHS graduate – drum major/flute soloist) was involved in a serious car accident here in The Woodlands. Megan is in stable condition in the ICU Neurology department at Memorial Herman Hospital (medical center). Bruce and Jerilynn have been staying nearby in a hotel.

Megan is slowly but continually improving. She answered her Mom today, which no doubt moved her parents to tears!

Keep the prayers coming for all involved in the accident. At this time, Megan is only allowed family visitors and no flowers/balloons etc. are allowed in ICU. Cards can be mailed to the Litterer home:

Thanks to everyone who has responded with their support, it is very much appreciated!

The prayers are working. . . . .keep them coming!

Yesterday they strapped Megan in a wheelchair for 2 hours which requires advanced use of the brain. She has begun to respond to a few questions and seems to be aware of things around her. When Jerilynn told Megan that Mr. J (the most incredible band director at TWHS) was in the waiting room, Megan began to conduct music with her feet! WOW!!!!!!!!!!

Megan has been moved to a smaller pod, still in ICU but with a TV for stimulation. The Litterers are now able to bring in a few familiar things for her...pictures, a special pillow...

For those of you who have access to Face Book, Megan's friends (Jenna, Brittany, Megan, and Brent) have set up a Group Profile called "Pray for Meggie" where they keep everyone informed on how she is doing. Yesterday's post says Megan has had a couple of somewhat rough days. The doctors have been taking her off her pain medication and she is realizing it. Great news is that she is responding to commands! Megan was able to brush her teeth which is super. She sat up on her own and tracked with her eyes. She's improving and getting better and better every day! All of your prayers are not going to waste.

For those of you who are not in the “facebook” loop, Megan is making great progress in her recovery. She is now at TIRR (The Institute of Rehabilitation and Research), 4th in the Nation for head injuries. Megan is working with therapists up to 8 hours a day! Visitors are being limited due to over stimulation and stress. If you want to visit, please contact Jerilyn or Bruce. Megan is able to carry on conversations, feed and bath herself, and read many of her get well cards. Please keep this family and the other families involved in this accident in your continued thoughts and prayers. It will be wonderful when Megan can be moved to The Woodlands!
