Doctor Jensen just came in and was ecstatic to see how well Sarah is doing. He expects that with some inpatient rehab after the hospital stay and of course with some time that she will make a full recovery.
After hearing about her walking this morning and checking her current symptoms he was very optimistic.
They are recommending that after being released from the hospital she spend around 2 weeks or so in an inpatient rehabilitation facility here at the U to help with her walking, speech and cognitive skills.
He also believes that she is 2 days ahead of his expected recovery time and that the delusional behavior and thoughts are a direct result of the steroids which they are slowly weening her off of.
I'm headed home to spend some time with the boys then back up here for the night.
I can't tell you how thrilled I am that she is recovering well and getting stronger. I will pray that Sara will rest and heal. I am glad the boys are doing well enough. I could tell they (Geddy& Eli) were doing some thinking when I had them a few weeks ago. I said "she does not have MS and your dad will tell you more, but she is strong and will be OK." I feel like Sarah is a sister to me. Thank you for being such a good support for her. By the way, you are a gifted storyteller. You have a way with words and you are so funny in some of the comments. Keep it up!
