Dr. McCrory, the lung doctor came by a little while ago. He said her oxygenation is great. he was thrilled to see her sitting up! He said as much as we can keep her out of that bed, the better it will be for her. I told him that we were going to try to get her to use the Incentive Spirometer Volumetric Exerciser 6 times a day. he said that you cannot use this too much. It'll expand her breathing capacity and help prevent her from getting pneumonia.

Monday 3:45
Sally is sitting up in the chair now. Barbara, the physical therapist tried to get her to walk using the walker but Sally said her legs were rubberey. So they compromised by having Sally sit in the chair. She said that she'd try to get someone over here twice a day to work physical therapy with her. She asked if sally was always lethargic...I told her no, I think that's the Flexeril.
