Debbie has had a good week here at Shepherd. She has endured much therapy in speech, physical and occupational, casts on both her legs and right arm and come through all of it like a champ. She is now cast free with only ankle and arm braces to be worn while sleeping. Her walking has improved and her memory is better.
Today especially, Debbie has seemed more like herself before her injury. She was laughing with me earlier and making some wise cracks. Our Lord is good!
She goes on outpatient status Thursday the 26th and will enter the Shepherd Pathways Advanced Rehab Program. If the therapy meets our expectations and can be tolerated, she will be in this program three to four weeks with week-ends off. We are both wanting to come home as she has expressed this desire several times today alone.
I know you are diligent in your prayers that this week's change goes well and for Deb's continued healing. Thank you so much for all you do. We love you and may God bless you.
