Saturday, Day 4

After a good night's sleep, Diane is beginning to feel somewhat like a person again. The feeding tube going in her nostril was taped to her cheek (face cheek!) and it was no longer hurting her.
She doesn't have to have her IV drip tubes attached all the time, and we actually went for another walk up and down the corridor again, this time without her having to lean on me so much. She said "the rest of my body doesn't feel so bad" and I can attest to that!
It seems she will be discharged either Monday or Tuesday. I have to go now so the nurse can teach me how to operate the feeding pump that she will have at home. She misses the kids so Tyler and Danielle are going to come and visit her today. Yeahh!
