We seem to be staying the course with Mom's recovery. We have had an increase in interest from the staff ever since we had "the talk" with them so the level of care has definitely increased and been welcomed by us. She has been enduring some more aggressive physical therapy which makes her tired at the end of the day. Along with sitting in the neuro chair several times a day, they have also started getting her into a regular wheel chair in order to practice holding her own head up. Once they are confident she can manage, they will start taking her on walks in the wheelchair.
She is also undergoing another swallow test accompanied by scans so that they can make sure all the healing has taken place at which point she can move on from pudding and applesauce into more substantial foods.
We are still asking that people hold off on visits as mom is sure that her hair is nowhere near presentable.
More when we have it!
Jennifer & Family
