Gorked

Yesterday was a good day for Mom. She was much more alert, she ate three meals (and kept them down) she had a shower (with a nurse) and after supper she (with Dad and I on either side) went for a walk! She walked to the end of her hall and back! Whoot!

She got a new roommate. The roommate fell yesterday morning and broke her leg in 3 places and is awaiting surgery. She was in a lot of pain last night and vomitting so they drugged her up a lot. We asked the nurse a few questions about the roommate after she had received all the drugs. The nurse told us that the roommate wouldn't be a problem as she was gorked (aka drugged up!). The nurse explained that gorked is of course a medical term.

I need to shower so we can go back to K-town.
