Laverne was sitting up in her chair when we arrived. Unfortunately, the doctor had not been in yet to visit so many of our questions remained unanswered. The physical therapist had worked with her in the morning. She was able to walk down the hallway (100 feet) with her walker. The PT gave her a list of exercises she will need to do at home. The physical therapist stated that one foot seemed weaker than the other.
She was in a great mood during the entire visit. The only pain medication she is taking is Naproxen 500 mg twice a day. A concern is her blood sugar was high. Her blood sugar was a little low in the morning so she had a couple of glasses of OJ which probably caused the problem.
She received balloons from Norah. Rondah and I plan to visit her tonight. Fred said after seeing Laverne today, he thought that Laverne should have done the surgery earlier. We are all slightly optimistic that she will be released either tomorrow or the next day.
