Hi everyone, grandma was scheduled to go home today but I was recently informed that because she is having a little difficulty breathing and has a cough they want to keep her for one more day in the hospital. She will come home Sunday and have company from the family to be with her for at least the next six weeks to help her get going again. The physical therapist will see her during the week and hopefully we will learn how to assist her to get the exercise she needs to improve her mobility and quality of life. She has a stairway chair to help her get upstairs to her room and other improvements to the home that will make it easier for her to get around and do the things she needs to do.
We spent several hours with her yesterday and she had numerous visitors at the hospital. She was somewhat tired but seems to be improving. We want her to get more rest but also to get around a bit more and are hopeful that getting up and around after having more rest will help her to heal more quickly.
Please let Mom or me, or Ed or Jean know if you have any questions.
