Day 5


Another fantastic day! Granny is still in good spirits, eating solid food and no evidence of blood loss. She was also not using any oxygen, although she may need to at night from now on since her levels tend to drop while she's sleeping.

She was released from the hospital this afternoon and returned to the rehab center where she is going to continue her physical & occupational therapies there until December 24th. At that time, I will be taking her home permanently as soon as I get home from work (barring any unforeseen emergencies). She can continue therapy as needed from home or at a day facility after that. Granny is definitely ready to take on the challenge to meet the criteria for release from rehab. I am also bringing her home during the daytime on Saturday and Sunday as the therapists only have one session on Sunday which they will do before Granny leaves for the day.

Keep on sending Granny encouragement--this has truly been a marathon event for her and she is close to the goal of going home!
