A Great Night

Tashie and Bruce in St Charles' Garden
Tashie slept like a baby last night, in the care of Mabsie, and after having been guided through bedtime rituals and ablutions with Anne. Although her view of Pilot Butte is "nice," she is eager to get back to the ponderosas and peaks of home, so we'll be putting together a plan. Whether she comes directly home, or home via a few days in rehab, is still not decided. The insurance company has to respond to the appeals within 72 hours, so that means we should get a response tomorrow.
Fred wings back to Oakland today, and will probably return once she is home and settled. He has been a trooper, patiently waiting for the time to visit, and then having a chin wag when she was up to it, and just being there when she wasn't.
I expect Tashie will work really hard at PT today. She is getting better and better at maneuvering her body with less and less assistance, and the nurses have been stellar at pushing her diligently to do a little better each time.
