Colleen: progress

[mdlbear]

Colleen continues to make measurable progress: she can now move (though just barely) everything but her left knee. She's still too weak to stand, and gets dizzy sitting -- after two weeks in bed that's not surprising. There's no pain from the surgery.

Tomorrow morning she's moving to White Blossom for rehab -- that's the place she was in a couple of months ago. They're close, and have a good physical therapy department. The best in that department is in Vallejo, but something a 2-hour drive away from home is out of the question.

Meanwhile, she's lost a lot of weight and looks fantastic -- healthier than I've seen her in years.

Though we surprised another patient by just walking into 2354 where Coleen was before. {whoops}

But we agree, she looks wonderful!

I'm keeping a candle lit for her.

Progress is good. I hope this is a lasting silver lining.
