Another update

From DD Tuesday night after she and I were up to see Grandma

Just came from Mom and she is doing MUCH better!! She's awake, alert, up in a chair, eating, pink cheeks and feeling great. They removed the catheter and everything is fine. She will go back to Perkins sometime tomorrow.
There are still moments of confusion, but this was a good day!

Tonight:

Mom was dismissed back to Perkins today. She is going to have a lot of family here over the next 9 days.
So if emails are not coming in, everything is fine, I am just playing hostess. I'll try to do the regular Sunday
email. Please don't stop praying for her. Every day is a challenge for her.

Then, after an email from one of Grandma's friends that she had been up to see Grandma and she did nothing but give blank stares:

Thank you Donna for being such a good friend. I'm afraid what you saw today is what it's going to be from now on. She was exactly like that yesterday and this evening when I was with her. The only reaction I got was when
our son Dustin called my cell phone and said he just landed at the airport. She smiled real big. I held the phone
to her ear and he told her hi. She did say hi back, but he was in the parking garage by then and the reception kept breaking up. She then just drifted back to sleep. Have a good trip.

Sorry I don't have anything good to report. Will keep you posted.

Oh my, oh my. I am so sad Grma W has to be so sick. Hopefully Dustin will bring some good times.
