Wednesday report from Pat

She looks great! Good color, sitting up in bed and alert. Her voice sounded
normal today. Even with the pain meds, she's more coherent than I am before
my first coffee of the day. She is in a lot of pain when she moves, though.
But she's in great spirits and seems optimistic.

Her surgeon called her today and they seem to have agreed on her going home
Friday (I'm sure she told you alreasdy). She's allowed to eat again, thank
goodness. It's the food I brought in for her, not hospital food. Maybe a
tiny step up?

Janet's worried about her roommate (she's always so compassionate about
people's problems) and mentioned her concern to the nursing student who is
on her team.
