The doctors, nurses and therapists are impressed with Mom's progress. Dad went back over with me for a quick visit last night and Mom opened her eyes about half way when we arrived. She kept them open by herself for quite a while. She was much more engaged and active in our conversations.
I'm seeing a lot more of her personality coming out through her hand and face gestures. Her response time is much quicker and more definitive. Lots of thumbs up. She even teased me about taking so many pictures of my kids (I'm stunned that she didn't want to see every single photo of them :) ), although she did want to watch video of August walking a few times.
She seemed to be more comfortable and pain-free than I've seen in a while.
All good stuff.
Hot damn & Hallelujah!!! That is wonderful, heartwarming news!!! I've got a BIG lump in my throat... Give Marlene a "thumbs up" from us.
