Hi Everyone. Mom had an MRI today on her left shoulder. She was anxious about being in that tube for so long, but she did great. We hope to have the results in the next few days.
She should begin bearing weight on her feet Friday! Geoff and I have been giving her foot rubs to help desensitize the nerves in her feet, and she's been working on a CPM maching (continual passive motion) on both legs to get them ready to be vertical.
Kuba arrives this evening and will be here until Saturday night. Geoff, Heather, Kuba and I will head to Palo Alto for tomorrow afternoon to have Thanksgiving with our dad, step-mom and that side of our family. We'll be at the hospital with mom on both sides of that outing.
It's hard to be entering the holiday season dealing with this situation, but, in the spirit of Thanksgiving, I am eternally grateful for the life of my mom.
Hug your loved ones tomorrow.
love,
jennifer
