So, I spent a couple of hours at the hospital on Wednesday. In the morning I took Jared and Kamryn there and they colored lots of pictures to decorate Carolyn's room. They also picked out mylar balloons to take to her. It was hard for them to pick out get well balloons for their Grammy - they wanted the mickey mouse and princess ones.
She was fitted for her back brace and doesn't like it. Its like a turtle shell - hard plastic that fits pretty tight all around her torso. She will be in it for 4 weeks to 6 months, the average is usually about 3 months.
Today, most likely, they will be moving her to Aspen Ridge, a transitional care facility. It is right by Wheeler Farm and very close to their home. This will be very good for her and John - she can get good care and he can get some rest. We're not sure how long she'll be there or what the next step will be.
