Hello again dear Sarah Nirguna friends,
Sarah is resting at the hospital and stable. It appears that she will be discharged sometime in the near future. This depends on whether she is willing/able to start walking again. The doctor wants her to begin moving her legs more in the bed and trying to sit up and take a few steps. It's hard when you've been immobile for almost a month. In terms of her release, we are exploring possible nursing homes in the Hollywood/Santa Monica areas. At present, she needs around the clock medical care. This is the case for now, although, according to the doctor, if she started walking again, this would improve her respiratory function, etc. and give her more freedom. Sarah deeply loves nature, so it would be nice if there were a place that could offer this environment. No luck so far. It seems that nature and nursing homes are like oil and water! Medi-Cal will cover the costs (We're still investigating other coverages as well). If any of you could recommend a place, or have any advice along these lines, feel free to share it! Although her home isn't appropriate, it may be possible to have an around the clock nurse in a home-like environment. We're exploring. Much love, Susan
