Day 1 of Therapy...by Dwight

I am here right now at the NRH with mom and she is doing great. Today began her first day of physical, speech, and occupational rehab. She took it all in like a pro. Three hours of work out a day. She is doing one hour with each. The physical workout is the hardest. They are working with her on standing and trying to strengthen the right side of her body. She stood up today with assistance from the therapist and even once really erect. Her speech is great! They asked questions that she had previously gotten incorrect and today she got them right. "do you eat the banana before you peel it" She got it right along with all the others. She breezed thru the occupational rehab as well. She used her good hand and arm to exchange cups of water. She did a remarkable job even by the standards of all of the therapist. Mom never showed signs of tiring.

All and all it has been a great day. We are watching the news. She feed herself dinner and lunch. Keep the faith.
