She walked today
Just walked for the first time - went about fifty feet then back. Was complaining about her bladder being full, the catheter was not functioning. The nurses took a bladder scan and confirmed she was full - worked on the catheter for about 30 minutes - no change. They were just about to put a new catheter in when her nurse tried one more time to "flush" the line and "EUREKA" - they struck gold. Within minutes the smile returned to her face and she was much more comfortable. At just that time, her sister Patty arrived from Tuscon and brought more joy to her. I went and got Patty a bite and brought it back to the room - then came home to tend to the dog, caught up on email and made some edits to the blog - will be headed back to the hospital shortly.

Did she get down into the "start block" position and wait for the starter's signal? Wait until she does the hurdles! As J_A_N_E said: getting that extra plumbing out of the way made her feels like the hurdles were no problem. Thanks for the postings. A bunch of little flowers makes a boquet!
