Paul's Update: April 13th at 10:45pm
Karen continues to be in what I referred to her Doctor as a period of “regression”. She isn’t opening her eyes as much, and not really moving as much as she was a couple of days ago. I asked the Dr. about this, and he said it is normal to see periods where the patient will be less active. He also reiterated that it will just take time.Karen has begun her sessions with the occupational and physical therapists, and is likely to see them even more now that she had been moved out of ICU. She is in a ward where there are four patients for each nurse.
We will provide visiting information in a couple of days, as soon as we get a better handle on the visitation rules.
Here movement out of ICU is somewhat of a double edged sword for us. She was very well cared for in the ICU, and we grew accustomed to the attention she received. We hope she receives the same level of care in her new situation, but we don’t know for sure.
