The Road to Recovery

Mom was moved to St. Lukes hospital on Sat. June the 5th. She has a room on 6th floor, which is rehabilitation. One to two weeks of Rehab was the original time line we were given. After the first couple of days some of the nurses and therapists thought mom might be able to go home after just 1 week! She is slowly gaining back her balance, walking, and strength. Her days consist of physical therapy, occupational therapy, recreational therapy and a few more. Mom is doing pretty well at everything but is weak and sore from being the hospital bed in Ia. City for about 10 days. She still has about a month of recovery from her surgery, which means that when she does get to go home she will still have to take it easy and relax. Hopefully mom will be home when I post next week. Things are starting to look up.... Kel
