Saturday - update

Martha had good progress this morning but yesterday was a crazy day.

Her roommate had a massive heart attack after having double knee replacement surgery. I haven't heard all the details but this event was pretty emotional for Martha, as you can imagine. Martha said she really liked her for a roommate too. (All we know now is that she is in ICU.) Martha was also pretty nauseous yesterday and found out she is allergic to codeine. Basically she was pretty itchy and she said she wanted to claw her skin off. So, her therapy didn't really get done yesterday.

Today is a new day! Paul says she was up and doing much better! She ate a good lunch and walked around some. He feels confident she can go home tomorrow. The weather is not too good up there and the hospital is nearly an hour from their house.

The said "Thanks!" for all the flowers and cards.
