August 14 - 17

Melinda has been doing great with her therapies. She is working very hard to recover her mobility and flexability. She continues to make progress. Friday evening Melinda was given the ok for a short pass. She did very well with the transfer from her wheelchair to the vehicle. Once she was in the vehicle and we started driving she said she was feeling car sick. Dr. Smith says that is pretty normal with brain injuries and the new movement in the vehicle. It should get better.
Melinda has a very busy weekend with lots of visitors. She was up in her chair most of both days. Sunday evening she was very tired. She was so tired she wanted to lay down and not finish her dinner. I knew she was tired when she said that because she is always hungry and ready to eat. She layed down and she slept all evening. She was woke up to get a bath and then she was back to bed again. She woke up tired Monday morning and was a little sluggish for her therapies and the therapists noticed she was not her normal self. We made it thru the day and she is going to get plenty of rest this evening and tonight so she will be ready tomorrow morning.
Melinda want to thank everyone for coming to see her. She always enjoys getting visits. She continues to have a good attitude and works very hard. Please continue to pray for Melinda's progress.

God Bless.
