Late this afternoon our favorite nurse, Sarah, moved Vickie down to the TRAC unit of the hospital. She is in a regular room now with her own bathroom ,telephone and view of the parking lot. The visiting hours are pretty much wide open now, within reason of course.
All the drain tubes have been removed [intentionaly]. Tommorrow she will have a ct scan to see how she's handling the fluid.
Vickie slept thru the move downstairs, so this was probably just another day for her. For me this turns out to be the best day in nearly a month.
