More Progress

Mom has been moved out of the ICU and in to a regular room. Her pain level is still extremely high, but they are doing their best to control it. She is still on IV meds, but they are talking about taking that out and starting the oral meds possibly tomorrow, but more likely the day after. She has been sitting up on the edge of the bed to eat (solid foods today - yeah!) and has been able to take a few steps to sit in the chair. Before Dad left the hospital this evening they were talking about trying to get her out for a walk down the hall sometime tonight. They seem to think that she is progressing quite well in her recovery so far. Since it will still be at least another day before the IV comes out, Dad thinks that they have at least another 2 days before she will be released from the hospital. I will post more tomorrow when I get another update!
