Journal entry by Barbara Zuelzke —
Its the end of the 2nd full day, of Mother being home from the hospital.
She is doing ok.
Lots of resting in chair or on couch.
Taking laps around the kitchen whenever she's up.
Still adapting to the effects of a couple of new meds, with some side effects like headaches, dizziness and nausea.
She told me today, she has no memory of being in the ICU. She has amnesia for about 5 of the 13 days she was hospitalized.
She keeps expressing how grateful she is to be home.
Her first physical therapy session in the home will be tomorrow.
