Colleen: progress

[mdlbear]

Some progress: Colleen had her two PT sessions back-to-back as one hour-long session -- gets more in that way because they don't waste time getting her in and out of bed in between. But it has to be pretty tiring. She was standing in the frame for 20 minutes this time.

She's bored and lonely, of course. Loving her Kindle -- with three people in the room, and one hard of hearing, she can just retreat into a book rather than trying to turn her TV up to where it could compete.

Today's For Better or for Worse kinda sums up how I've been feeling lately.

I would think that she's making very rapid progress, though, with that much PT at once, every day. (May her progress continue to accelerate!)

She seems to be. It's still frustrating; she's been there a week now.

I understand how frustrating it must be, but a week isn't very long for recovering from surgery like that. I hope you can take some comfort in knowing that they will send her home just as soon as she's ready.

It's not knowing how long that will be that's getting to me. I can handle another week. I can't handle another month, either emotionally or financially.

Aww. That comic really speaks to me too. I hate sleeping alone. Thanks for the update on Colleen.

[mdlbear]

You're welcome.
