Doing Amazingly Well

Molly has made a remarkable recovery today. She still is in pain and needing medication, but she is chatting up a storm and sitting up. She ate a very good dinner tonight and to share too much information... had her first bowel movement - which is a good sign.

We took a field trip down to visit the fish and the man-made stream that's running through the lobby. Molly practiced throwing pennies into the stream and had a ball.

She was fitted today for a brace for her arm, which I think will be wonderful, especially as her arm continues to heal. The brace just goes around the upper arm and allows her to bend her elbow, but so far she isn't feeling comfortable moving it very much.

We haven't heard anything about when we might be heading out of here, so our guess is that it will be Friday.

Thanks again for all of your wishes and emails. It is nice to hear from people when you are stuck in a hospital room. Thankfully, Molly is feeling leaps and bounds better, which makes everything much more tolerable.
