As I was driving Troy to the Bay Area to catch a morning flight home, I received a call from one of Joanie's numerous doctors. Enough of them were able to communicate and agree that Joanie can be discharged. They expect to discharge her "early" Tuesday morning. She is to be transported by ambulance to Sonora Regional Medical Center's in-patient rehab unit. I can't wait!
She was finally placed back on Coumadin this afternoon. It is their policy to wait one week after a bleed to restart the blood thinner. Even though they have been monitoring her heart, her not being on Coumadin has made me very nervous. We don't need another stroke!! She sat up for quite a while today, ate on her own, (even though I bribed her with her favorite See's chocolates if she ate enough) and started taking oral meds. She doesn't yet get up and around by herself.
After dropping Troy off at the Pleasantan BART station, I drove home. Since there is nothing I can do to help Joanie tomorrow, I plan to go back to school.
