3/6 Update

I am SO sorry I've not updated the blog for a couple of weeks. Our laptop needed a repair and we were without it for 2 weeks. It's tough to be so disconnected from the world wide web! I'm back online and ready to report some GREAT news!

Myra successfully fought the infection and is back at Bethesda and gaining lots of strength! She is walking during PT- yesterday she walked 1900 feet!

Today her test was to climb three stairs and she was able to climb TWO! Slowly but surely, she's gaining strength!

Yesterday she had a small procedure with a scope down her throat (this s considered small if you're explaining the procedure and not the one actually going through it :) to find out about the ulcer in her stomach and in a few weeks she will have a colonoscopy o check on the ulcer in the colon. She's not so excited about that one, as you can imagine.

That's about all for now. I'll be in touch and continue to report the wonderful progress Myra is making!
