Special Note! Jeff apologizes for missing Katie's Bon Voyage party. We will see you in the spring! Enjoy your winter.
Condition 6:30 pm:
- Dianne ate her first meal tonight! She had turkey, peas, mashed potatoes and gravy, and even ate some pumpkin pie.
- Amy informed us that when Dr. Tangel is back on Monday he will most likely move her to the regular part of the hospital. Once she is there she will have 2 sessions of physical therapy a day. She is down to only 2 IV drips and oxygen. Her vital stats have been stable for a couple of days.
- She is talking more but will occasionally say something that is random. These are not happening as often as earlier. We did get her some puzzles to help her with her hand coordination.
- She also stood up by herself for a couple of minutes, and took a few steps. She did have a session of physical therapy today too.
- Kidneys have still not started. Dialysis (Shelly) from 7:00 am to 10:30 am.
- Dianne stayed awake most of the night. She has been awake most of the time during the past 2 nights and yesterday. They say this is common after coming off the ventilator.
- Her speech is clear, friendly, but doesn't make sense. We're told that this is common after being on high levels of medications.
RN: Amy D (day) / Gladys (night)
