It's a Wonderful Week-Opps!

It’s been great to have Kathy home for almost a week now. She has really enjoyed every small detail of home life. We both thought it would be more difficult to integrate back into home life. Kathy has done extremely well on every count. She does her own upkeep with little assistance, looks forward to and enjoys three meals a day and of course has stayed religious to her physical therapy. She of course is unhappy with her ungainly boots and shoes but for another 6 weeks, she has little choice.

Physiologically her only hesitation is her self confidence and the constant fear of what the future will bring. I’m sure all patients who have gone over the falls like Kathy must feel this way. I keep telling her daily everything takes time and the pieces of the puzzle will to come together faster than you think. Relax your doing great!

Yesterday Kathy came down with a strong headache which lasted through today and so we called Dr. Kureshi this afternoon. After reaching him, he has decided to have her take another CT scan to make sure everything is ok. This evening Kathy feels slightly better with over-the-counter headache medication. I will keep you posted about the results tomorrow! Again, thanks for all the wonderful prayers and thoughts for Kathy’s recovery. She can’t remark enough on how much support and love got her through!
