I am in Boise for a few days so my information is less detailed. Although mom's surgery went well yesterday, she has required the ventilator (breathing machine) post-operatively. She is slowly being weaned off the ventilator and hopefully will be off by tomorrow.

On a more positive note, her diet has been advanced from thickened liquids to solids.

This waxing and waning course is typical for someone mom's age with the types of injuries she has sustained.

The tentative plan is to have her ready for transfer to a rehab facility in Utah sometime early next week.

  3. Ben, I worked with your mother in the 1980's at Sage Creek. Please let her know that my prayers are with her as she makes a speedy recovery. John Jacobson, jjacobson@sfasu.edu
