Thursday, December 29

We are settling into rehab life. Margaret's schedule has been shuffled around a bit to allow her naps in between therapy sessions, but already in 1 day I have seen her stamina increase.  I guess what I am learning is that every day can be very different from the last.  Margaret's head and eye movement to the left is increasing and she gains a bit more independence with each day as she learns to balance and control her body.  She received a pleasant manicure and pedicure from 4 wonderful friends last night and there was quite a bit of giggling and laughter going on as I kept furtive watch for any staff in uniform who might take an inkling to stop such women fun!  Actually the staff is great, very respectful and caring.  The women closed the evening with the rosary and prayers for Margaret and her recovery.  Thank you for such an uplifting gift you gave both of us.
  Terry, Margaret's brother will be arriving in Atlanta Friday as he takes over from Barb. I am sure he will give you his contact information so you can keep in touch.
