Lots of Visitors!

Max, Zoe and I went up to visit Grandma yesterday (Wednesday afternoon).  She'd already had a lot of visitors that day: Vanessa, Lexi, Carol, Tanner, Eric and Susan!  She said she felt very popular and well taken care of!

Here's a picture of Max and Grandma (Max had fun playing with the "reacher" that came in her basket):



And here's the flowers we brought from everyone with some get well cards (not all the cards fit in the picture, but they are all there).  She was very touched by all the personal cards and so grateful!



And here's the basket of goodies:


She's been walking twice a day, and does physical therapy three times a day.  She walks to the bathroom (with the assistance of a nurse).  They also have her on a bending machine in her bed that bends the knee back and forth that she does off and on throughout the day, she says it hurts and feels good at the same time.  She's on Lortab for pain and takes it throughout the day, but is not maxed out on it yet.  The pain was getting worse yesterday evening as her spinal and femural block they gave her during the surgery are finally wearing off.  But, she's in good spirits still and has excellent care.  

Al slept at Carol's last night and has been able to sneak in a nap or two at Carol's as well which is so nice for him!
