Sunday, Dec. 4th
A great day! Margaret's eyes were open, she was alert during our entire visits today and we had good conversation. She asked us a lot of questions about her health status today. She gave us our first smile today too! She's having a little difficulty with swallowing still and will be evaluated by a specialist tomorrow. Her children are here but have not been able to see her as she's still in the ICU. She's well enough to see them but they have strict rules here and although the ICU has private rooms, it is very open with glass walls so you can see the other critically ill patients and so they don't want children there. We're hoping they'll be able to move her tomorrow or Tuesday. We're looking forward to talking to her primary doctors tomorrow to hopefully get a better sense of when Margaret may be able to travel home.

such great news! and so happy to hear that her children are there. I hope she is well enough for them to see each other tomorrow, we'll be praying. Please let us know how we can help? maybe a collection to help with the costs? CaringBridge offers the ability to do donations, maybe a caringbridge could be set up for her?
ReplyDeleteFirst smile! That says so much about Margaret. I hope she can see Jeremy and Amelia very soon.
ReplyDeletePlease give Margaret our love and prayers. Carrie, Tyler and Troy Hancock
