First Steps

After a night of thunderstorms I took a quick walk on the beach in the early AM. I never get tired of seeing the ocean. It was another restless night for Mom although a hospital is not the place for sleeping. However, she continues to recover rapidly and began walks outside her room. All monitoring has been removed including the coveted catheter, that means trips to the potty. She also enjoyed a special cocktail prepared by her nurse, the Black Russian. A generous mixture of prune juice and milk of magnesia. Yum. Her appetite is growing and tomorrow may hold a salad from beyond the hospital walls. Please continue to pray for protection from infection. Love you all. Dave
