"C" day is coming

Well the doctors and insurance company heard about Cosima's walking up and down the 19 steps and feel she is getting close to being checked out.

Right now they have "C" (checkout) day as December 22nd just in time to meet her Christmas self-imposed deadline. The doctors feel she has made such good progress and with her mobility that she is ready to head off to Thelma's very soon. The 22nd isn't far away at all so it almost seems like this has crept us on all of us.

Who would have thought 3 months ago she would be this close to being discharged so we are truly grateful for all that has happened.

Cosima is still having some digestive issues and she is working to see if by adjusting her diet she can get this resolved before "C" Day. With all that has happened to her physically it isn't surprising but is a bit frustrating. It might be some of the food she is getting at the nursing center is a bit different than her normal diet or that her body is still readjusting to solid foods. At this point she still isn't sure and neither are the doctors.

But like everything else she has overcome we are sure she will get through this as well though it has been challenging. The digestive issues have been a bit hard to deal with but as with all of it Cosima is managing to cope with her smile still in place.
