Hospital Sick Day

I had a restful weekend, and woke up ready for a full day, but my stomach had other plans. After eating breakfast and taking my morning pills, the food decided it liked the view back up my throat. I tossed up the newly swallowed items and was blessed to have a compassionate roommate who immediately handed me a new bowl and washcloth and removed the vomit filled cup from my hands. 

I baffled the doctor and nurses as there was nothing out if my routine to motivate the nausea. However, it did mean I had to skip my morning therapies to settle my stomach. I felt a little weak at lunch, but by the afternoon, I was much better and ready for PT. My therapist knew I had a rough morning, so she didn't push me too hard. We spent half an hour practicing standing well and balancing my weight on my legs rather than my arms that so tightly grip the parallel bars. Finding the correct position is still tough, but it gets better everyday. 

Praise God I'm still making steady improvements on this long road of recovery. Please pray that I'll continue to make progress and that my insurance will quickly approve the next portion of my stay. Thank you for the prayers for my hips and leg tremors - I have seen improvement there too though I would still ask for continued prayer that my legs would learn where they are in space rather than trembling to search for it unnecessarily.
