Rotating Suziema's Tires

The suture area has stopped leaking and oozing. The staples should come out Friday or so. Healing up nicely.
We have her doing leg lifts and spreads 3 times a day. 5 reps each. She loves getting to them, but she really has to work at it. I see her grimacing. It's hard. That leg is very weak. That's the spot where we're going to watch her progress, now.
The bruising on her arm and hand where the IVs went in is spreading. It looks bad, but it's a good thing. It just means the blood is going back to where it belongs, I guess.
She's getting a little bored and frustrated. That's going to be the hardest part. But she's taking phone calls, so that's good. No visitors yet.
We have therapists and nurses coming by every day to check in. By the time the staples come out, that will slow down significantly.
Appetite's good, she's getting all the exercise she can, and it's just going to take a little time. Thanks for checking in.
