how did Nana fare over the rest of Saturday and then Sunday?

The weekend was like March...in like a lion and out like a lamb. Well, almost. I think we got the pain thing licked, except for maybe an hour each day. Doc prescribed Demerol this afternoon...she can't take it, so she sent him back to the drawing board. We'll see what he says next.

Nana is improving with each set of exercises, and I think she's doing great at the end of the first week. I keep reminding her she just is a week out of surgery, and she keeps throwing pillows at me!

We had company this evening, so that brought her spirits up. Tomorrow I take her in for some blood work to verify the coumadin dosage, and she see's the doc next Monday to set up PT and an appointment to have the staples removed.

If she's throwing pillows at you, she's gonna be okay! LOL!

Help her to recall where she was after a week last time. She seems to be much better this time...or am I completely off base?

What? You're too cheap to buy a staple remover? ;)

Seriously! Glad she's doing so well. (Keep dodging the pillows. It's good exercise!)
