So Sandra continues to progress. She's blow-drying her hair herself. She is sleeping without the braces on her legs.
She's still not walking though. Doctors' appt this week to see about when she can start weight-bearing on her right foot. She touched/rested the right foot (heel) on the ground a couple days ago. This sounds like a tiny, tiny thing...but its actually HUGE. She tried it and nothing "bad" happened, at least for her, it was a positive experience. For someone who's never broken a single bone, to have thirteen+ broken bones all at once, it's overwhelming, psychologically. She sometimes cannot see walking and writing and knitting ever again.
If I could find her a pharma consulting job where she could do phone consults, I think it would help her mental outlook a lot. Sitting around gives her way too much time to think negatively, although her attitude is extremely positive. She has a job...but cannot do it. :(
Anyone with a few minutes to spare, give her a call. Thanks!
