I just returned from the hospital.

While I was out the first time, her Physiolgist/Neurologist came in and really got the ball rolling. By the time I had returned, the Speech Therapist, Physical therapist, dietician, RN, and aide had come in several times to make sure that she was getting the care that she needed.

The physiologist is moving her to rehab on Monday so that she can get the extended care she needs. The Speech therapist has scheduled another swallow test. The dietician more accurately has calculated dietary needs. The nurse gave her something stronger for pain, The PT moved her to a chair, and the aide washed and braided her hair. As of now, she has eaten some dinner, had her meds, and is resting comfortably (somewhat) in bed.

Also, by the time I had left the hospital the 2nd time, she had limited use of her hands and forearms and could carefully feed herself some pudding.

Thanks again to all that have prayed. God hears and answers.

And lastly, please forgive me for not answering each of you directly. It's late and I'm tired. I do appreciate your prayers though.

I'm a bit late to this thread, but I don't think it's ever too late for prayers. Prayers for your wife that she may heal.
