Thursday's Notes

Alison had a busy day with visitors (Andy and Philip) and therapies so I decided not to go.  

I did however speak to her physical therapist and her speech therapist Dara.

Dara said Alison ate an ice chip but stressed that we are not to do this.  And she did communicate with her.  After a while, Alison read her name tag and told her "Leave Dara".  So she did.  Dara is requesting a chest xray since it has been a month since the last one and Alison does have a phlegmy cough.  They are also looking into a stronger pain med for her and are trying to pin point her pain.  Reenie sent them Alison's medical records.  They obviously looked at them and are using it to help determine a new care plan.  

They are really interested in Alison's interests so that they have something to talk about during therapy.  Maybe down the road they can somehow incorporate archery???  Can you see her out there now shooting targets from her chair??  I totally can!!! Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.  Please comment.
