Jodi started with therapy again today. She fixed a pizza for dinner tonight, did the dishes and cleaned up the kitchen, put in some wash and took care of Ana Jain. After that, she was exhausted. It is hard for her to get back on track. She tires easily. Jodi has been telling us for a couple of weeks that she can swallow but we had no proof. Today her speech therapist had her swallow three small teaspoons of pudding and she managed just fine. We of course celebrated. Her walking has improved a whole lot. She walks with the walker everywhere and I am there only to make sure that she does not fall. I think that barring any further complications, she may be walking on her own in another month. Tomorrow we will take her to Cosco so that she can shop and push a cart around. She had a very slight bleed from the angio sight with all that she did today so we may not pressure her to do very much this week. We will play it by ear (or in this case “sight”).
