Divine Intervention

That's what mom is calling it. Her renewed hope and energy, her ability to talk and eat without becoming winded, her amazing improvement within 24 hours. It has been almost as instant as her drop before: last Friday afternoon she was moved from critical care to fifth floor, Saturday she woke up feeling horrible; this Friday evening she was transferred from fifth floor to rehab in second floor, Saturday she woke up "better." Pretty cool!

The swelling in her arms is really down; they almost look normal. She still has fluid in her legs, but increased practice walking and therapy should help with that over time. There has been no specific date mentioned concerning going home, but we are all encouraged by the recent progress and are thanking God for his Divine Intervention in mom's life.
