March 3 2015: Today our mom was approved to be admitted into the University of Utah Rehab facilities. We are very happy because at her current status we as a family were very nervous to take her home. We have been told that being able to stay at the U was the gold standard of physical therapy specialized in neurology. We hope that she will improve quickly there and be able to come home soon. She was hoping to be coming home but she will have to wait just a bit longer. To give her a bit of home my dad brought up Zoe (Jason and Tara's dog) to snuggle with.
The neuro oncologist will meet with his medical board on Wednesday so we will have a better idea of what is our next step to help mom/grandma heal.
In case your wondering, no I have not counted the number of staples because I have a short attention span and yes she still has lots of beautiful red hair. In fact, when we do her hair you will never know where the incision is. She looks younger and is more beautiful than ever.
Karen made this poster to give mom something to look at.
We all get quality time with mom :)
Love the fact that you are posting Barbie's progress.
ReplyDeleteSounds like she is in the best possible medical care.
Keep us posted and we will continue to prey.

Grandpa said there are 25 staples.
