Colleen: progress!

[mdlbear]

Colleen has made a fair amount of progress over the weekend: she can now get in and out of bed without help. That's huge for me -- it means she can (and did, last night) use the commode without waking me. Sometimes -- it depends on where I am in my sleep cycle. But it'll help a lot.

The other thing is that she's going to try using the rolling walker (Johnny, which is strictly for balance and seating) in the kitchen, and preparing her own lunches. Also huge, if it works. (As of right now, it appears to be working; she rolled out to her chair with it. We're keeping the other (Frankie, which provides solid support as well as balance) for the commode and car transfers.)
