The Little Engine That Could

Mama had her appointment with the surgeon today and got some good news. The surgeon has given the okay to pull the PICC line which is scheduled for tomorrow, Wednesday afternoon and they are planning to remove the drain next Tuesday. The abscess that was on her left side looks as if it's gotten smaller so the surgeon believes that it will go away on its own. YIPEE! She is going up the stairs with some help fairly well and today on the way to the appointment, she walked up the stairs and out to the car with her walker instead of being in the wheelchair. She also was able to sit in her wheelchair in the waiting area as well as during the appointment without feeling as if she was going to pass out. Another plus! This week is my brothers birthday and no one can make Danish Dessert quite like mama can so she sat up in the kitchen for 3 hours and with the help of my dad, made his favorite dessert for his birthday celebration. She's doing so well and I couldn't be more proud of her! You are one amazing person mama, we all love you to the moon and back.
