Dialysis started early and was done by about 1 Pm which was nice. She had a few catnaps during this time so did not sleep too much during the day, hopefully less sleep during the day will help her sleep better at night. She seems like a little stronger day by day, PT is getting more aggressive and doing more difficult and longer routines with her. The goal is to have her stand up on her feet every day next week, we'll see how that goes. She is eating more Mr Freezies every day, tomorrow we want her to try some pudding and see how she toleates that. The doctor would like to see her take up some form of schooling in the hospital school, even if it is only one subject and only half an hour per day, but she is not there yet. They are switching her from Heparin drip "blood thinner" to Coumadin taken orally. This is so she is dependent on one less pump, she only has this one and the pump for her tube feeds right now. Well it is time to close, goodnight.
Regards, Maynard
