Wednesday night update

Overall, Rachel had her best day since being re-admitted last Tuesday evening.  She sat-up for most of the day, walked around the unit a little, and she actually ate two dinner rolls, two Chips Ahoy cookies, drank two pints of milk, had a bit or two of Raisin Bran cereal and two bits of a bagel with cream cheese and of course, sweet tea. The doctors seem to believe that if they can get her nutrition built up that will help tremendously with the heart function and help her overall.  She looked and acted the best that she has since being re-admitted.  The doctors want her to be fed by a feeding tube during the night to add to the nutrition.  Finally, maybe a light at the end of the tunnel.
