Walking laps-

With my Mom on my arm, around the ward she is on, in the hospital. She is doing much better than could be expected! Today, she was taken off all the connections that held her stationary and stuck in bed, and given permission to move about as much as she was comforatable with. So we walked the halls every hour. I think we finally made 6 laps, even expanding down to the other unit before returning to her room.

Her recovery so far is a little more than remarkable. The Doc called it a 1 in 100 recovery so far, meaning she shouldn't be doing as well as she is. Call it a miracle if you believe in such things. I know I do...

She is expecting to be released by Friday and esconced in Cousin Tammie's house just a few miles from the hospital for a week before being allowed back home to Alpena.

I just hope she didn't over do it today!

Now its late and I'm going to bed a little earlier than last night. But first, one more cookie from the kitchen...
