    Thanks for the prayers.

    An update about my Mom

    They did surgery this afternoon is on her hip. It sounds like the shoulder will not be operated on. What is going on there is a triple fracture of the humerus bone (upper arm bone) just under the "ball" of the shoulder joint, and they don't operate on that. She may be in a sling for the rest of her life. She landed on her elbow so I guess that was a compression fracture. Doc says if all goes well, she'll be out of the hospital in 3 days and into a nursing home for rehab...Not sure if she'll be able to go back to living on her own in the apartment?

    I called her tonight after her Hip surgery, sounds like it went well, the doctor was coming back later to get her to stand up.

    I am going up there tomorrow (3 hour drive), so I will be offline, not sure when I'll be back home?

    Update,
    I was with my Mom for the last two days. Her Physical Therapist and Doctor hoped she would be able to start PT right after the anesthesia wore off, but she wasn't able to do anything that day or the next, seemingly due to pain meds. Wednesday I believed they dialed the dosage back a bit and she was able to make her PT goals.

    This photo was lunch, right after her first successful PT session, Out of bed and in a chair, all of which really picked up her spirits.

    There is still a long way to go, but she is advancing slowly. The goal is for her to advance far enough to leave the hospital and go to Rehab (nursing home)...hopefully on Friday. They sure don't keep people in the hospital very long anymore.

    The Old photo is my Dad and Mom (circa 1948).
    ...I had never seen this photo before. While in the hospital, My Mom needed something from her purse, she opens it and shows me this photo and says, LOOK, a 70 year old 'selfie'

    Father God we thank you for the good report on Ronae's healing. Continue to provide healing and help with her pain. Heal her shoulder and make her strong during her PT. Be with the doctors and all who care for her. In the name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen

    I got a surprise call last night, They moved my Mom out of the hospital to Rehab, that was suppose to happen today? I guess they had an opening and that they wouldn't be able to do the transfer today? I hope she was physically ready for the move?

    I really wanted to be there for the move, to help her get settled in and fetch everything she needs from her apartment. Well, whatever...I am headed out the door as I type this. I hope my worry here is unfounded.
    Later.
    Jon

    I prayed all prayers in the 33 posts over again for Ms. Ronae as I read them and thought about not posting, that God knows how I prayed, but did anyway. All praise goes to God.

    Slow progress.
    But, yesterday, she was able to walk, with one handed walker, for the first time...about 50 feet.
    I talked to her after that, and she was in real good spirits due to the walk.
