Did not post yesterday but, so far, a pretty good weekend. Since its the weekend, not a whole lot going on although physical therapy did come by and Rachel walked further than she has walked yet. She sat-up in the chair a couple of times for extended periods of time as well. She even let Daddy stay the night with her, allowing Mom a chance to sleep in a real bed. Now Daddy knows why Momma is so tired this next morning and its true, you don't sleep when you are in the hospital.
Today, Rachel has already walked, about 3/4 of the way, around the whole unit! She is still very shaky on her feet, needing someone on both sides of her to steady her, but during her walk today, she did it without stopping one-time! Simply amazing!
This week looks to be a rather busy week as she will probably go down for her first post-transplant biopsy to determine where she is at on the rejection scale. Also, they will probably send her down at some point this week for another swallow-study test. She has been doing some swallowing techniques to help strengthen her vocal cords.
Still waiting word on a new heart for Noah and Ella; please continue to pray for these two little ones.
