update on gmommy

Shes doing better. They took the wound-vack off of her wounds and have pouches on them now that get cleaned out every so often. They've been getting her outa bed and sitting in a chair just about everyday. But she's having a problem with her blood pressure. So she almost faints every time and sometimes she does. They don't know why her blood pressure keeps dropping. We think it's cause they still have her on blood thinners! DUH that would be a clear indication as to why it's low when she gets up! But whatever. Other than that she seems to be doing ok. Their going to keep her there at Piedmont now instead of moving her to an acute care hospital because of all the issues that she's had and continues to have. They dumped her doctor and got the head of the medicine for Piedmont over her now so that's great! She does have some depression and doesn't always want to do things but every one has told her that it's now all up to her. We've all done all we can do now she's just got to get going with her therapy and get motivated to do this. We can do it for her. So if she doesn't start moving soon she won't be able to at all. She's been in the hospital now for 10 weeks so her muscles are kinda crap. We can't do the work for her. So if she ever wants to go home again then she's gota do it, and we've told her that. So that's kinda it.
