The physical therapist made Donna stand up today and she did (no walking yet) for a few minutes. However, it was reported that she was none to happy about this and said what we think is her first real expression since this all began. She said - SHIT ! (Apparently there was no mistaking her word.)
And then............................................................... she pulled that darn feeding tube out of her nose again. The nurses/doctors are having a difficult time getting this back in so they are considering inserting it in her stomach now.

WOW! Standing, how great. Pulling out her feeding tube just shows her spunk. Everyday is she improving, little by little, and I am so happy for her and the family to see it. May sound odd, but had a wonderful time with my visit and getting to know the family. Will need to visit Memphis with Donna sometime in the future. Please let Donna know that I am thinking and praying for her all day long. Give her my love. Again, thanks for all the hospitality Darlene and Joseph.
ReplyDeleteStill figuring out how this thing works but it is a great tool to get the latest updates out.
ReplyDeleteI am so happy to see so many of Donna's friends in California be so supportive. I know that when the day comes for her to go home it will be very difficult to say goodbye. Then again, I know I will be handing her off to some very special people so I can rest easy ! Thank you everyone !
