October 24, 2010

Day 58… Each day has Mom feeling stronger and stronger… Last week she went in to Dr. Zane’s office and they removed the staples from the abdominal incision. A total of 22!! This next week she’s hoping to feel up to getting a mani/pedi at the Nail Salon… She last had it done right before she ended up in the hospital and the nurses commented throughout her stay on “How pretty” the flowers on her toes looked! =D

Mom’s been doing well, trying to get used to lifestyle changes and finding her appetite again. She’s scheduled to see her surgeon, Dr. Zane again on November 1st. At that time they’ll be discussing what ‘the next step’ is going to be for Mom. She’s not yet been able to go see Barbara but Monica has and says Barbara looks good and is doing as well as can be expected… So right now, all is ‘status quo’ on the home front for now!

Mom has not yet been given the “Okay” to drive but she is feeling much better and is FINALLY feeling up to visitors and chatting on the phone again… So if you have the inclination or if you have the time please feel free to touch base with her sometime!!
The best number to reach her at these days is her home number (310) 635-2119.

We hope you are all doing well and once more we Thank You for all the love, prayers and support you’ve sent Mom and Barbara’s...

Hugs all around!! xoxoxo
