Mom got the green light today to transfer back to Oklahoma tomorrow. Dr. Coufal is pleased with her progress and wants her to continue with rehabilitation, beginning to walk with the support of parallel bars as soon as possible. He expects that she'll need inpatient rehabilitation for 3 - 4 more weeks.
So, Mom will be transferring to Mercy Rehabilitation Center tomorrow! She is excited to get back to OK, to the "red dirt and armadillos" as she put it to Mabel, the CPMC Case Manager. Mom is a bit nervous about the changes ahead and the travel time tomorrow, as she hasn't sat upright yet for as long as she'll need to tomorrow. Luckily, her and Geoff's flight has a quick plane change in Denver, giving them as quick and straight a shot as possible between SF and OKC.
I know that many of you are eager to go visit Mom once she gets back on her home turf. She is excited to see you, too! I'll post her phone number and room number as soon as she is checked in and has her room set up tomorrow. Please give her a call before dropping by to see her, as she'll have frequent therapy sessions daily.
love,
jennifer
