Lou was fussing this morning about all the tubes and by this afternoon they are mostly all gone. She spent the night with oxygen, IV, catheter and leg stockings that pressurized her legs all night. She also had a morphine machine that she used sparingly to let her get a good nights sleep.

Dr. Siadati and his PA, Sean, came in about 11:30 while Kathy, Mark and Mary Kathryn were here to get any questions answered. He ordered another round of X-rays to see if there is something causing pain. He also ordered physical therapy for this afternoon and they have just gotten here. She has a new back brace that looks a lot like an old-fashioned girdle. She says it really helps. She walked around and came back with a low level pain remaining. The PT helped her learn the right way get in and out of bed. The doctor will come back this afternoon to say when Lou will be released. It looks like it will be tomorrow now.

Kathy and I ate lunch with Connie Henderson. Her father was in emergency the same time that Lou came in Sunday. Connie is married to Corky who owns the apartments that Mark and I and recently Ashley lived in out by the lake. Corky found his father-in-law in a comatose state Sunday when he went to visit him at the Alzheimer's facility. He called 911 and they were here when we brought Lou in. He has regained consciousness but had a tough time last night, so keep "Doc" Robinson in your prayers.
