A very good day

There's not much to add from my earlier post. Paola walked from her room to the nurses' station and back three times today; she ate yogurt and drank juice; she remained clearheaded the majority of the day. She's off IV meds entirely. She had two more drains removed, but the doctors say she'll likely still have some drains in when she is discharged. We had an excellent nurse, Laura, today. We were delighted not to have the nurse from hell today; she wasn't on the unit today (maybe she got fired!) I gave Paola a bath and washed her hair. She felt well enough to deal with her own hair and gave herself a ponytail.

That's the latest...
