A nice soak (with someone with her of course for safety), in a warm tub-well, I'm wondering if it would be a good idea?<br />Now that the treatment is over-do they suggest any activity to re-train the brain? I'm assuming that the whole point of the coma is to re-adjust the brain somehow, and setting-up new connections or alternate connections seems like another idea, but what do they recommend?<br />The bowel problems could be part of the detox also.<br />I don't know if I'd be in too much of a hurry to travel, every day should bring improvement, kind of like with a newborn or preemie.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7916684766417367730.post-54890898082848112912010-02-11T08:59:35.509-06:002010-02-11T08:59:35.509-06:00Great to hear the news.

I remember wanting that so badly, once I began to get some more energy.but due to the central line my own pj's were relagated to just the lower half! :) Even that feels better. Sitting up was a bit more of a challenge and involved lots of pillows! It felt good to be trying to do some normal things and getting out of the bed. I am hopeful for you that you are able to delight in some of these small pleasuress as well even if it is only for short periods! I wish you a very good dsy and look forward to hearing from you when you get the chance and the energy. Until then, know you are on my mind, in my prayers and that I am cheering for you to have great success!<br />Lance, how great it must be to be able to stretch out a little more by moving up to the couch from the chair! :) The secret to making that couch more comfortable: put a blanket down before the sheets, keeps that vinyl from caausing you to slip at night. Glad you found some intersting shows to watch. Theo found he enjoyed the subtitles because he could learn spanish at the same time! Your spanish is good so maybe the sub titles are not as important. When spending so many hours on nothing in that artificial environment, it sure feels good to enjoy some of the more normal things, doessn't it?<br />Hope that things continue to progress well and that you will be looking at going home very soon. Thanks for keeping us all posted on the day to day stuff and including the things you celebrate ss well as struggle with. It helps direct my prayers.<br />Look forward to talking with both of you when you get the time!Fernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10447469584806915973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7916684766417367730.post-92192363779186086552010-02-11T06:58:25.112-06:002010-02-11T06:58:25.112-06:00I am so glad we are moving forward- love that!
