Bus Trip! ~ Sam's headed to ReHab!!
Wednesday, July 06, 2005 at 11:05 AM EDT
Well, it looks like Sam is heading to rehab tomorrow;
the rehab folks came by this a.m. to give me the news.
This is such a big step for her. I've been told they work miracles in rehab, and that the staff is excellent. Send extra strength Sam's way to help her work hard so she can come home!
In other news, the GI docs seemed to think the vomiting was due to one of her tubes dipping down into the wrong area;
that has been remedied.
Her catheter has been removed, and
she's now going in her diapers again, like a regular toddler.
She's having dialysis right now, and it looks like they have a M-W-F schedule in mind; I haven't heard any news about the collection they tested, to see how well she's "clearing."
They also removed her central line, as she has less meds coming in now,
and they don't need as many ports.
So it looks like a big week for Sam!
She's been very alert this morning, and was getting very excited,
waving her arm around and blowing me kiss after kiss;
maybe she heard that she's getting out of ICU!
I'll miss the wonderful ICU people who have given her
such excellent care thus far,
but I've promised to bring Sam back for visits --
they threatened to track us down if I didn't!
Thanks,
Jessica
