Team Minnie Update Tuesday 10/1
She had another good day at PT. Tonight we noticed progress again about her standing and moving "that old bad leg.".
The thyroid tests came out OK. Her nurse said she thinks the elevated heart rate is from not drinking much. Well, me and her night nurse took care of that tonight as much as we could. The nurse made sure she drank the cup of water with her meds, and before that I had her drink a few times. The night nurse said she would put in the notes for the aides and nurses to encourage her to drink.
She looked so pretty tonight - they came and gave her a hair cut and style today. She said she liked her new hairdo. And a few minutes after we got there tonight, our favorite aide came and took her down for a shower. That aide was off the charts good. If I'd had a twenty in my purse, I would have tipped her. When she got Minnie back to the room, she brushed and teased her hair a bit, and put lotion on her.
So for tonight's prayer request - that she will keep on drinking more to get hydrated to get the heart rate down, and that she continues the good progress with the PT.
