Sorry for the long lapse in blogs. I had some computer trouble. Well, most people would have been OK, but I'm more technically challenged than I would like to believe.
Allyson has done very well the last few days. She is walking well. She has trouble seeing things/obstacles on her right side so that is what they are working on now. They have begun to get her to write some. she is not doing to bad. Her spelling stunk before this, so anything is good now. ; ) She is eating well, also. Speech is still a major obstacle. We ask yes/no question which she answers by squeezing our hand for yes. She did say OK twice but is was a spontaneous utterance not really speaking. she has to train her brain to make her vocal chords talk again. The literature says 4 - 12 days for speech to return. We are on day 5.
The team gave us a goal discharge date of April 25. This could change but is the goal for now.
