Saturday Afternoon

Another round of dialysis today.  Her blood pressure is still higher than we would like.  Dr. Z (The Neurologist) is not as concerned with it, likes that her brain is getting plenty of blood and oxygen.  They are monitoring her blood pressure closely though.
Many friends and family have called and come by the hospital today.  We appreciate and enjoy each visit and call. 
Tomorrow they will do the post surgery CT.  This will tell us if the brain has recentered itself. Also it will let them confirm that the bleed has been resolved.
Today is 'solid' food.  That doesn't mean steak, but pudding, sherbert, ice chips, etc.
She did talk in sentences today. Remembered things from previous visits today.  She is still drifting in and out of sleep.  She gets tired easy and falls asleep while you are talking to her.  But the staff are very positive about her progress and prognosis.
