1;30 pm update cst

I just got off the phone with Tina and Mary. Mom is making noises Like mumbling. If you ask her a question (sometimes more than once ) she will give you a clear and full answer. She is out of the norm crabby, but has been cracking a couple of jokes. Mary thinks she was that way because they were not giving her any food or drinks for fear of them ending up in the lung. last night she tried to pull her IV's out so that is why she was restrained. About an hour ago they gave her some food to eat, fish mashed potatoes,and pears. She scarfed it down like she hadn't eaten for a while Loved the pears. They still are care full when giving her liquids they put something in them to thicken it up so it wont go into the lungs.physical therapist came in a little while ago. Mom has regained some sight in her left eye, feeling in her left leg but still no feeling in her left arm. on her own she got out of bed and into the chair in her room. She is finding it easier to sleep sitting up, as well as coughing up stuff from her lungs ( This is a good thing )
