My mother is complaining about physical therapy and how hard it is! Perhaps a good thing will come from this: she will have empathy for my doing PT 3x a week still after 21 years of it!!!!

Please continue to pray for her. She is doing really well for an 87 year old who has nearly died from blood clots. ONe of my prayers was answered (well many but) a specific one concerning her going on Coumadin. I was against it, and she couldn't live alone while on it. Turns out my "nurse" sister went ahead and told the doctor to begin her on it (while she was still in the hospital the end of last week) and my mom had a terrible allergic reaction! Praise God! I knew this was NOT the right drug choice for her! I'm a little miffed but not surprised that my sister failed to discuss this with me. I found out from mom when I was discussing my concerns yesterday.

She only has 15 more days in rehab I think... but today she was wheeled down and ate with others in the dining hall,too!
