Back to Walnut Creek

Mom is heading back to Walnut Creek this morning for a follow-up visit with Dr. Coufal. (Yes, we finally heard back from his office yesterday.) Ambulance is still the only way for mom to safely travel, so they are scheduled to pick her up at 7:45AM for a 9:15 appointment. Geoff will be at CPMC this morning, up until the ambulance arrives, and will follow them to Walnut Creek and be there for the appointment. It's very likely that mom will, at least, get her casts (one on each leg) off at her appointment, and may also have some x-rays done to see how her bones are healing up. We should know a lot more after her appointment regarding her bone graft surgery and weight bearing status, which will lead to a better idea of her rehabilitation plan.

Fred, Patsy and Marilyn left on Wednesday. Mom had a great time having good friends around. From what she tells me, they had a lot of laughs, which is always good for healing! Linda heads out there this Saturday, and mom is excited to see her, as well.

More updates after mom's appointment today...

love,
jennifer
