Well, seems like nothing significant to report tonight, Andrea had an okay day, in the morning she sat on the edge of her bed, after we helped her up, and she sat for almost 5 minutes with very minimal help, something she could not do a week ago. After that she had dialysis, then a nap, and after that with the help of a sling and the lifter, she was in her wheelchair for nearly an hour. A constant battle for her is nausea, seems like she is having an upset stomach most of the time, and some of the pain medications she can have also cause nausea, so she sometimes refuses the painkiller because she is afraid of throwing up. Slowly she is regaining strength, a little at a time, seems that she is running low on patience at times. Hope tomorrow will continue to show gains, even though they may be small.
Thanks, Maynard
