Physical Therapy Has Begun!

Saturday around 1 pm, the physical therapist showed up. The big news is that Mom stood by the bed for about a minute, which the therapist deemed "excellent" and also "very good". She also sat up in the bed and scooted herself to the edge. She had no problems with balance, but was a little bit dizzy. This was the first time in 3 days that she has not been on her back, so her progress continues to be outstanding.

Bobby and Ethel came for a visit today and stayed about an hour or so; it was very pleasant and everyone enjoyed themselves.

We have begun to read Nothing Daunted, a true story about two wealthy young women who in 1916 took jobs teaching school in a small town in NW Colorado, Elkhead. Mom is not up to reading yet, so I am reading it to her. It is my first time reading aloud since my children were small. It is a good book and we are enjoying it.

We are expecting a visit from Ernie this afternoon, which we are looking forward to.
