Morning Update 3-20

I visited Mom this morning on my way home from work. She got to do a little physical therapy on her left arm this morning. The therapist had her squeezing a piece of foam which she was able to do with some effort. She also helped Mom to raise her arm up and out to the side. Then the therapist helped her to stretch her fingers out and asked that when people are with her to make sure she keeps the fingers on that left hand layed out flat so they dont tighten up. The pulminary doctor was just getting ready to put the smaller trach tube in when I left. Supposedly we may be able to actually hear her speak because less air will be coming out of the trach. Mom said she thought she might be moved to a new room down the hall later today if it becomes available.
That's all the news for now.
