Back in the Slow Swing
Movement for 9/2/08:
- No wheel chair, today. She did her usual movement thing, walking with environmental and/or my support when appropriate, using the walker when appropriate, taking the steps without a problem, etc. Today she performed a little bit as though she was still getting her "sea legs" back, but that might have been my imagination, as well.
- Something I forgot to mention about movement during the reporting vacation: At least twice that I can recall she roused herself from her nap earlier than usual and, by the time I was aware she was up, she was about halfway down the hall under her own steam. On the one hand, that's a good sign. it means that she has confidence in her ability to "ambulate". On the other hand, continues to need (and will continue to need) a lot of support and observation when she moves, just in case, so I need to be a little more alert. Some of the problem will evaporate when we can cut back on the number of fans we're using, right now. That should begin to happen within the next couple of weeks.
