Ceil was up and doing great this morning. After breakfast, Ceil went a mile at #3 resistance on the recumbent bike! Very good! The big news of the day is home care is coming at 11:00 this morning to do an evaluation for services for Ceil. I called Dr. S last week to reactivate the service. This would be a great thing for Ceil, as she would have a PCA come in two or three times a week for a shower, which would give Linda a break and provide a much needed service for Ceil. We may be able to get in-home therapy back, which would also be great. Well, the home care nurse came to evaluate Ceil and was very impressed with how good she looked. She was totally supportive and wanted to get both the PCA and therapy going again! What a blessing! Ceil's vital signs were fantastic and the nurse could not believe she was 80.
Later on, the nurse called me back. Looks like we will be getting the PCA to come twice a week for Ceil's personal cares, and therapy will be calling me to set up evaluation times for this week as well. Exciting stuff! More great stories of recovery for Ceil to come. Every day at home matters!
OK, Mom, give those PCA and therapists hel. . . Well, maybe not that. Give them a nice time because we all know that's just the way you are, nice.
