I spent most of the day with Galadriel today so that was wonderful, though it is hard to have a heart split between hospital and home. We started to sort out old family pictures (old, that is from 1999-2005 or so (!). Galadriel knew every single one and what year it was from. Occupational therapy including writing, reading and things like that. Physical Therapy came in and G. walked to the door! I was delighted to be there for this. Since she has no feeling, her brain can tell her leg what to do but she doesn't know where it is going unless she looks. This should heal on its own, but only time wll tell. She eats by herself now. We leave everything for her to do on her own best she can first before we help out. She's determined. She will need a splint on her right hand, since she no feeling her wrist tends to bend and hand stiffen up. The brain drain came out today so hopefully she will be moved to a regular room tomorrow.
The highlight of the day was Fr. MG visiting her and bringing her Holy Communion.
Thank you for all the continued prayers and support. A very heartfelt thank you.
Peace Be with You,
