Jenny was a bit congested Saturday and more tired than normal, but the infectious disease docotrs feel she is free of anything contageous. As for Sunday, Jenny is still sleepy, but feels better. Little or no congestion and she has been great with her blood pressure. Her Neurologist did not appear to know she was making voluntary arm movements, and she was able to do right and left side muscle contractions on her arm. He asked if she could move her legs or feet and we told him that she could not, but when asked to try, Jenny made ever so slight movements in her left foot . The neurologist felt this was an excellent sign and sounded very positive for the first time. They feel she is ready to go to Indy on Monday if all stays the same.
Recovery
It’s raining in Cleveland, but the sun in shining on Jenny
Jenny’s temp and blood pressure are fine now- just a few hours too late. However, she is making voluntary arm movements when you ask her. She can move her arms one at a time just enough to definately see that she has movement. The nurse was so proud and told us about it once we got back from lunch and Jenny is proud too every time she shows someone. The nurse claims she was able to move the fingers in the right hand. Most of the arm movement comes from the shoulders, but you can see her arm muscles flex when she tries. I guess my day is pretty good after all.
