Tuesday was good day! Shar did great in therapy and even started going up and down a step in physical therapy. She said that she didn't do great at speech therapy but we explained that right now her physical health is more important than restoring her brain function. Her speech therapy will take time to improve, so we encouraged Shar to be patient with herself. Today she crushed it in physical therapy going up steps and walking. In addition, she spent a lot of time outside her bed, sitting up in a wheelchair. Jerry once again spent the afternoon and evening with Shar.
One exciting change at the rehab is that they are now letting their patients order their own meals. Because of staffing issues and Covid, up until today the rehab prepared the same meals for everyone (with some substitutions for dietary restrictions). However, today Shar was able to order her meals for Wednesday and the menu looks good!
Hey Shar, glad to hear you are doing well. Keep up the good work. Hope to see you soon!! Ann
