Happy 4th of July!

Hi all,

Because of our collective over-zealousness lately, we kept the visit short and sweet today. We arrived just after lunch, wheeled down to 2nd floor to catch a bit of the cubs game, and our visit ended by 2 pm, when her physical therapy session began. Alan was very nice, pushing her forward, but really kind at the same time. Mom told him "Your gonna kill me, Alan", but it didn't phase him. We made sure she had her pain killers to get through the pt session, and left her to do her work...they are working on getting her to use a slide, which transfers you from your chair to a large mat. She also said she stood up this morning! She said it HURTS to stand. Her neck is still a bit sore. How do we schedule/arrange another massage? She is also looking forward to a glass of plain, old icewater!

I forgot the muffins again, but promised to bring treats for the staff on the weekend. Please keep an eye on the water in the flower vase, everyone. It gets yucky quick.
