oops, forgot to add:
As per discharge summary dated 2/25/90-5/9/90, page 8 of said document:
http://zimp.org/documents/Discharge%20Summary%20050990.pdf "The Patient stayed in the hospital for a very long period of time with several complications, but she improved slowly and gradually, and was in stable condition at the time of transfer to the nursing home."

I'm not sure what you are trying to imply. The term stable condition means there are no major active medical issues and the patient's basic vital functions are not fluctuating or in need of support. It doesn't mean that the patient is cured or in anything even approaching "normal". I'm sure you have heard patients' conditions described as critical but stable condition. This means that the patient is at the time stable as above, however still in critical condition meaning that the patient's life is in the balance.

Many thanks. I wonder what that leg injury is about. "No evidence of myocardial infarction" (heart attack), but we knew that. Note also that the docs recommended intensive rehab.
LD & CJ, in case you didn't see this, and if you're interested.
WC- where in WI? I'm from Tosa.
