Kara was approved for another week in the SNF. She still has no roommate, which has been nice. She had blood drawn today, and her liver enzymes continue to be elevated. Hopefully this is not indicative of any new or yet undiscovered problem.
Our family brought an Easter picnic to Kara and spent the afternoon in her room. Kara is very content and loves to play with her musical worm and octopus/sun/spider thing. Today she even socialized during a "musical event" in the day room.
Tomorrow Kara will be getting a much needed haircut. When she was in the hospital, she would thrash her head back and forth in pain. Also, no one could brush her hair because she can't sit up. As a consequence, Kara's hair is matted into one giant dreadlock. It has reached a point of no return, and will probably be chopped off, which is particularly unfortunate because she has bald patches.
Finally, we have ordered a hospital bed for Kara's room at home, to hopefully make her discharge as smooth as possible.
