Today was not a good day. Grandma did well in her rehab, but the rehab hospital is frustrating us. She has had wonderful physical therapists, and the doctors seem to know what they are doing, but the nurses never seem to know how to take care of her. It's like none of them are reading their notes on how to take care of her.
If anyone knows of a rehab hospital in the Plano area that they can recommend, we would be happy to hear about it. She should only be here for another 9 days, but if things stay the way they have, 9 days is too long.
Pray for her not to be anxious in her walking with the physical therapists. Pray for her to trust in the Lord to protect her, and to take deep breaths. The Psych doctor does not think that she needs to be on anxiety medicine, but taught her how to take deep breaths to calm herself down. Pray that she remembers how to do these breaths and will do them.
Pray for her to have strength and confidence in her walking, but pray that she can remember the things that the PT's are telling her.
Pray for her wounds to heal. She has a few and they are slow to heal.
Pray for her swelling to go down. Her kidneys are not functioning well and her legs are swelling.
Pray for peace for her. She is frustrated, as we all would be. But, pray that she has peace in the Lord.
Finally, please pray for wisdom for us. We want to move her if she is not going to get good care, but we do not know where she will get the best care. We want her to get better.
Thanks for your prayers.
Sarah
