Wednesday Evening 10/3/07 Update

Another successful day! They are moving her along at a much slower pace than a "normal" hip replacement, but she is making things happen. Even now, she has come along faster than I recall the last one. She is totally unplugged now from all things that were stuck in her body!! She was up about 4 times today for either therapy or physical needs. She will likely be able to leave the room tomorrow, maybe. They came in this afternoon to find out a little more of when she will be leaving the hospital. It is possible that she may move to another facility to continue recovery instead of staying in the hospital. OR She may come back here to the suite and have skilled nursing care for a while. OR there may be a combination of these options happen! We should have a much better idea after the Dr rounds tomorrow. I do truly hope that there is continued skilled care in a facility for a little while longer. I believe her recovery will be much faster if that happens. This apartment is going to get REAL small REAL quick if she isn't a lot more mobile when she comes home.

Oh well, these are concerns of the morrow! Right now, the bed looks mighty inviting!!

Thanks to all for the cards, etc.

Cheers!
