We are still in the hospital dealing with a couple of issues and hoping to see the light at the end of the tunnel soon. Sherry had to go back into surgery on Labor Day because she had some bleeding in her chest cavity and that had to be cleared out, which set her back a couple of days. She was back in her room that afternoon and started her walks the next day. She had 4 laps Wed., 12 yesterday, and plans to get 20 today. She is doing very good, but is disappointed that it is taking so long to go home. She did have one of her four chest tubes taken out this morning, so that is at least the beginning of getting out. She is now “eating” her liquid diet lunch, but she gets any liquid at any time. She doesn’t know it yet, but I will get her to give you the next update soon. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.

Please share with Sherry that we are all praying for her. 20 laps sounds wonderful!
ReplyDeleteConsidering what a major undertaking this has been, it sounds to me like she is making great progress. Set backs aren't fun but do seem to happy more often than not. Give her our love and prayers.
ReplyDeleteSmall setback, but sounds like she is getting there slowly but surely...good idea to have Sherry do an update if she can. Good medicine!
ReplyDeleteIt still looks like the big picture is very positive:) Look forward to the next update.
ReplyDeleteSorry about the setback, Charley, but you and Sherry have come such a long way, together. Keep your chin up and tell Sherry that so many of us are thinking about her, and can't wait for the day she comes home, either. In the meantime, she'll get stronger each day and be more prepared to be at home. I bet the pups will go crazy when they see her! Thanks for the update.
ReplyDeleteHope the setbacks will soon be a thing of the past. Tell her to keep up those laps and she'll be out of there soon.
ReplyDeleteI guess setbacks are to be expected. Hopefully that is the only one and the next blog will be written by Sherry! Thanks Charley for keeping us all updated.
ReplyDelete2 steps fwd, 1 back...keep up the pace and she will be out in no time..Godspeed.
ReplyDeleteGive Sherry our best and tell her we are praying for her everyday.....I know she will soon be commenting on my Blog again.....God bless you both!!
ReplyDeleteI am sure Sherry will be back on track in short order.
