Hello All.
I wanted to let you know what a wonderfull day Holly had today.
Physical thearpy worked with her on walking, and she was able to walk about 80 feet back and forth up and down the hall.
She also got the new feeding tube, which was inserted through the stomach. I know it makes it easier to have that one versus the one in her nose.
Hey because of that tube she has now, I was able to get my first kiss in over a wwk! Yahoo!
Now back on topic, Holly also walked a second time today, and did just as well, only this second time, she used a 2-wheeled walker which she did very well on.
Today, they also downsized her trach from a size 6 to a size 4, and she is so very happy. She says, “I can clear this one out on my own, without suction.”
So, all in all she’s doning very good and hopefully will learn how to talk with her new trach tomorrow. They are going to have a speech thearpist work with her for that tomorrow.
Everyone take care and we’ll keep you up to date as much as we can.
