Hi Everyone-
I just got off the phone with Grandma-- Mom went to her ENT doctor today and had her Trach removed. This is an incredible step for Mom! It will take a few weeks to heal but it will be more comfortable for Mom and is a great step in her regaining some independence.
Also, with the help of the Speech Therapist, Mom is beginning to eat some real foods, like peaches, which are easy for her to swallow and attempt to chew.
Today is a good day!
As always, my family and I cannot thank you enough for your constant thoughts and prayers! Mom seems to be progressing and working towards coming home to us all! Please continue to send good energy and encouragement!
Best,
Jen Nelson
and the entire Nelson and Nelson-Snyder Families.
