I got to the hospital at about 10:30 for OT. I've only been going to OT because that is the therapy that they let me take part in so I learn how to best support Nancy. Nancy was still in PT when I got there so I went in there. Only to find out that Nancy had already stood 4 times. Three times using the parallel bars and once with a walker. We then went to OT and did a modified stand and pivot to move her from the chair to the mat. This transfer doesn't require a transfer board and it was pretty easy. It will be even easier once we have a chance to use it more and when Nancy isn't so tired.
She didn't get much of a nap this afternoon so I expected her to sleep most of the evening. Wrong! She worked on an afghan she is making and then we chatted for a while no sleeping this evening. She said she wasn't tired. That is a first and I believe a good indication she is getting better and getting some stamina back.
She still has the catheter and we may have to deal with that after she is discharged. We hope not but if we have to we will.
Please continue to pray for her and thanks for your continuing prayers and support.
