Greetings Family and Friends,
I just read all of your posts to Danna and she so enjoyed them. She is finally able to give a little laugh, without being in extreme pain. Today has been a quiet day. In Danna's words "nothing happened today". I am hoping she is over the hump and every day she will start feeling better. She started the day off by being told she was going to have dialysis, then that was changed two different times. She ended up not having dialysis today, but will go tomorrow. Danna's comment to all the confusion was "there are to many doctors". If I can count correctly, there were five different doctors in to evaluate her all before noon today!!! Danna did ask when she could go home to the apartment and Dr. Shield thought Sunday or Monday.....YEA!!!! She was on one of her many walks this morning, walking by a set of elevators and she said "if I could move quicker, so they couldn't catch me, we would be on one of those". I am thinking the nurses better keep an eye on her tomorrow, she may be quick enough by then. She has been able to walk with better ease. She is extremely sore today, because of all the movement. Danna was also released this morning to start eating again. She has not eaten, since Sunday afternoon. Her stomach is having a hard time adjusting to food intake, but we are hoping that will subside within the next couple of days. Thank you to Phyllis, Melva, and Dorthy for sitting with Danna today. It helps all of us, so much. Mom returned to Wichita after taking the kids home yesterday. She will be able to spend the weekend with Danna, then return home on Sunday evening. The kids will stay with her all week and next weekend. Also, thank you to Kari and Terri for helping with Dylan and Allie. Danna is thankful to not have to worry about the kids and focus on her recovery.
God Bless,
Deanna
