My mommy

Well, it sounds like my mom will have 7-10 more days in rehabilitation at the hospital and then she can hopefully become an outpatient. They are hopefully going to let her leave this Sunday for a little while to go home, but she has to go back after a few hours. If only she wasn't so dizzy (and could see) everything would be soooo much easier. She fell out of her wheel chair today, which makes fall #3 since surgery. She has fallen out of bed twice (only one of those times was her fault for trying to get up by herself) and out of the wheel chair once. They now have alarms on everything so if she moves someone comes in to check on her. Her heart rhythm seems to have gotten better with drugs but her blood pressure is still kind of high. She seems surprisingly OK with everything that has happened (coping well) and is being her tough self which makes us all feel a little better. She is doing really good in her psychical and occupational therapy but still can't perform very many tasks on her own (still needs help going to the bathroom, changing, ect.). Still praying for a small miracle that some of her eyesight will come back, it would be such a shame for her to never see her adorable grand babes again. Sometimes miracles happen....... It seems so odd to be going on with everyday life like nothing happened, but soon enough our lives will be changed too.
