Waiting, waiting, waiting

Kara is still inpatient at LCPH.  We are waiting for her to find a skilled nursing facility that will accept her. So far, all are either "full" or do not want someone disabled, though I find it hard to believe that Kara's disability would make her any more challenging than a geriatric patient with Alzheimer's or advanced dementia.  Anyway, until Kara has a placement, she will not be discharged.  Her recent blood tests still show elevated liver enzymes and she isn't quite eating and drinking enough, so she's still being monitored by her physicians.   

Since Kara is starting to feel better, she has begun trying to climb/roll out of her hospital bed.  And she has a new rule that her nurses MUST close the box of wipes as soon as they are finished.  And her curtain has to be closed enough to block her view of the door.  In other words, Kara is acting more and more like her old self every day.
