my mom

I got some good news about my Mom. Today she moved herself from the bed to the chair without help for the first time since her accident. That's one of the things they told her she had to do before they will let her go home. The doctor still hasn't given his approval to put any weight on her leg though.

My niece Kathy has been visiting her every day and giving her encouragement. Mom and Dad took care of her while my single-mom sister was at work so they have always been close. Luckily Kathy lives close now and has the time to spend with her.

So glad to hear she's doing better. I know it's slow-going, but slow-and-steady wins the race, right? Take good care.
