Lynne had another good night. She awoke this morning early and wanted to get cleaned up a bit. She enjoyed a cinnamon roll, banana, and yogurt for breakfast. The cinnamon roll was the first item selected from the breakfast menu. She has not lost her affinity for sweets. Two slices of cheesecake are also her first request at lunch and dinner. I think asking for two slices is out of the box thinking on the part of the hospital staff because only one slice shows up.
The surgeon visited this morning and stated that much of the enhancement was de-bulked during surgery. Due to the location of the surgery, he is not hopeful for much improvement in the right arm and leg deficit but he is hopeful for improved speech. She did manage to say "get me outta here" this morning. She is ready to move to rehab and get to work. She is quite the trooper as she had demonstrated over and over. Her nurse Ashley located a wheelchair, so I was able to get her out of the room for a while to see the views from the 6th floor. She is not fond of enclosed spaces, so the brief excursion lifted her spirits. Didn't take too long before the sandman returned for a visit.
Regards,
Darryl
