Mom did really well today.  She was alert, walked the hall and did a flight of stairs with physical therapy.  They discharged her this afternoon.  She is back at home.  She ate well for dinner, watched tv, went upstairs for a shower and is now in bed.  They removed the cervical collar and that has given her a lot of relief.  We are very hopeful that this is the beginning of her recovery.  We have a visiting nurse coming 2x per week, physical therapy and  occupational therapy are coming 3x per week and a social worker coming 1x per week to make sure she stays on track and gets stronger.
