Michaela woke up around midnight to be completely coherent. She drilled Kirk who was staying the night with her for a report of all that had happened to her up to that point. She then asked the nurse if she could stand up which she did! Kirk Said that she has grown and he thinks close to 2 inches! The night after was a little rough as the pain medication would wear off as she slept becuase she wasn't hitting her pain button, and peaked about 5:20. They gave her some heavy stuff and she soon slept until 8:40 when the Physical Therapist came in.
He was very impressed that she has stood up and coul pull herself up to sitting postion without aid, and asked if she would like to try again. So she did, and was able to pull herself up onto her walker with no help from the PT or Kirk! The physical therapist said she is doing tons better than most because within 24 hours she had already stood up twice and could pull herself up into a sitting postion with no help. The PT said most patients don't feel like gettting up until the 2nd or 3rd day! The prayers are working! Michaela is determined to get better quick.
