Update Friday PM

As the saying goes, "We are all good"! We just got back from the ICU and Mom is doing so well. She was able to sit up in a chair in the unit for about 1 1/2 hours. A great accomplishment. We are hopeful that she will move to a regular room tomorrow. Her heart rate and bp are remaining stable.  She was even able to have a popsicle; although she really wanted a good cup of coffee! I just talked to her nurse who said that she is sleeping and he will leave her alone as long as possible : - )
You know, it occurred to me today as I was in the elevator that part of my stress was not being in control. I know, you that know me find that hard to believe : -o). So,I decided to ride the elevator. This seems a bit silly but it was the one thing that today, I could control. I pushed the button for 4 and lo and behold I ended up on the 4th floor; and then 6; then 8. I finally could be in control. I suppose I may sound a bit silly, but for those of you that have been through this- you will understand. So, I guess that the elevator is my new friend. God bless you for your prayers and concern. We are thankful for our blessings and looking forward to recovery. 
Peace Be With You,
Cheryl
