Day 80

White blood count was 3.8 today which makes it very close to the normal range which is from 4.00-11.00. We got the results on the MRI showed no problems with the brain. A neurologist came by today and wants to do a test (don't remember what) also. They think that the memory problems, speech problems and the confusion were due to the fact that her sodium was very high (over 150, 145-135 is the normal range). Hopefully she will continue to improve quickly in those areas and her short term memory will return. It still takes her a long time to wake up and start getting herself together. Today a physical therapist came by and started working with her and will do so on a daily basis (she is so terribly weak). This afternoon when I talked to my sister, Mom was sitting up and coloring in her coloring book. B had been asking Mom what the colors were when she used them and Mom started telling her the object and what color it was as she colored it. God is wonderful and can not image going on this journey without having God in our lives.

Thank you again for all of your prayers.
