I know, I know… Mother’s Day was actually yesterday. I was just too lazy to post an update.
Chad, Sam, and I went to visit mom yesterday and she is looking great! She’s still having therapy everyday and I can tell she’s getting a lot stronger. She’s able to do transfers with just one person now (for the most part). She is still having some difficulty with the pivoting, but that will come with time. Her hip still bothers her and we can’t really figure out why. Her incision healed beautifully! I don’t know if there is an actual physical issue yet or if it’s mental. It’s very possible that she could be afraid to do too much given how things went awry last time and she’s overly sensitive to her body right now. All I know is, she is doing her best to work through it and regain her strength. Last week she actually stood with me by the koi pond (holding onto the retaining wall, of course) TWICE! This was after almost two hours of therapy already. That was definitely great to see!
Here’s a picture that we took yesterday during our visit of three generations of girls…
We hope you had a great day with the ones you love!
