WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES!

*Photo Magic by Russ

It may be one small step for man, but many steps down the hall for Marcia today as she continued her trek towards mobility and independence. Her day started early with her surgeon making rounds at 4am!!!! She is getting used to her new body parts and is
exercising in bed, standing, marching in place, walking and making steady progress! She is managing pain medicine while functioning, reporting soreness on the front of her thighs and not 'pain'! Isn't that amazing?
The key learning today from her medical team of doctors, nurses, and physical & occupational therapists is that she can do whatever she's comfortable doing, and it's all up to her regarding what she wants to do and when. It was a successful day and she continued to enjoy a sunny, million dollar view while peeking at what her sister was blogging....(nosey).
-Signing off for Day 2!

  3. Walking now, dancing soon! Glad the surgery went well. It will be a good Thanksgiving as you continue to recuperate.
