Continuing to Improve

Angela continues her respiratory and physical therapy - improving with both. She walked for - I'm guessing - about 40 feet with the walker and physical therapist today. She was up in the chair without a great deal of help on a couple of occasions, and has been coughing quite a bit. The doctor says her chest x-ray looks another 10% better from yesterday, and she is seeming quite like herself. He also started reducing her prednisone and theophylline. She may even be going home by the end of this week. Tomorrow, she should have her swallow evaluated again and will probably be allowed to drink thin liquids like water. That should make taking pills a little easier - she's been using V8.

We continue to marvel at the wonderful providence of God in bring her through this experience and ask for his continued healing and guiding in her life.
