Second Wednesday

This morning the doctor sedated Mary to do wound care and change her bandages. My mom said even under sedation her legs were jerking and twitching. They also took all the staples out. They said the skin grafts look great and everything is healing as it should. After that, Mary slept a lot. When she woke up she was feeling pretty good. She stood up!! She was able to stand for about 10 minutes and marched a little in place. Tomorrow she will be starting the physical therapy....not sure exactly what that entails. Friday is the next bandage change, and they will attempt to do that without putting her under. They are still talking about discharging her next week sometime, around August 4. Of course that depends on how she does between now and then. Keep up the good work Mary!!
