Mom had therapy on Friday and Saturday, and both were good days. No therapy on Sunday, so she kicked back and just relaxed. Today, she had therapy, and went up stairs! Six steps, and she did it twice, not just one-by-one, but one foot after another! She was really happy.
The spot where the trache was is almost totally closed up. It's taken longer to heal than we were told, but she's been taking longer to heal for everything, so this isn't something that alarms us. They basically just have a bandage over it right now.
We've been telling her bit by bit the things that you all have been reading about for the last few months. Because she was sedated for so long, there are a lot of things she doesn't know about. When she found out how long she was in ICU, she was absolutely floored. Not that I blame her. And with Easter coming up, this will be another holiday that she's in the hospital. But she's up in spirits, and we're happy to be with her.
Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. They're working, but she's not home yet, so please, keep them coming. She also loves to get cards, so you can send them to the house, and we'll be sure to bring them in to her. Thank you again.
