Todays 4:00 pm visit

By far Kathys best day since this all began. Her vitals are excellent and she is on a new sedative that leaves her body fast once it is turned off. No longer needs the nitro drip and digoxin course is complete. Her entire family was there at 4:00 and we were able to communicate with yes, no and some lip reading. She asked to listen to MC Yogi, requested a foot rub and a neck rub. Strength is coming back into her body and she was happy to show off how easily she can point her toes. Kathy's arms and shoulders are about the same as yesterday but she can lightly squeeze her fingers. Heart rate was below 100 for the first time in a week an her blood pressure is perfect. Can't wait to see what her neurologist thinks tomorrow morning!

  2. Heard she is asking for shampoo & soap... Always the best sign. I know it's a long road ahead Ross, but I am so happy for you all that you are on
    the upswing now. Keep up the good work, Love Debbie
