Jackie is continuing to make progress. She had her dialysis today and a visit from Physical Therapy. She is eating well. For breakfast she had cream of wheat,a few bits of scrambled eggs,two containers of milk and a cup of hot tea. Lunch was chicken and dinner fish. Once she is consuming enough calories on her own they will discontinue her feeding tube.
At the end of the day she was moved to a new room, 837. She has been stepped down to a room that is still staffed by ICU staff, but isn't considered critical. The nurses said she could probably have been transferred out of ICU but her doctors want to make sure she is getting the personal care she receives in ICU. Lori and I went to see her after work and helped move her into her new room. She was in great spirits and had an enjoyable day with some great company.
Joyce, June and Laverne came and visited with my mom while my dad went to the dentist. He broke off part of his tooth a couple of weeks ago and needed to get in to get a cap put on it. Debbie visited in the aftermoon and brought a couple of quilting squares to decorate her room, which she really enjoyed.
