Hospital News (Day 4)

Today Grandma Judy had many visitors, and as you can see, she is feeling a little better. Her lungs still have fluid, but her fever is down. Finally she can drink a little water, she has to sit up for 1/2 hour after she takes a drink. A little distressing, she is starving! Grandma did try to walk today, very dizzy however. The doctors believe she may have a reflux problem and they did a video test today on her throat. Tomorrow she will need to have an upper GI test. Tonight they put a new IV line in on her hand, she said that it feels so much better. She has an X-ray on her lungs every morning, and they can detect the improvement of her pneumonia.
Now don't forget about grandpa. We need to make sure he is sleeping and eating well. check-up on him, and keep in your prayes also.
