More rain most of today. I left the house at 6:30 am to take care of the weanlings before heading over to see how mom's night went. She slept all night and the only drugs given were two Tylenal pm. This alone was a huge step in the right direction but later in the morning came another BIG step toward healing and independence. Ruth had the idea to have mom use the bed rail for support and she took her first steps since the brain bleed. I started the laundry then left for Sam's club to pick up Halloween candy along with chicken pot pie and bbq ribs. On the way home I stopped at Kroger to pick mom up a loaf of dark rye bread. At home the pie was put in the oven and the laundry machines changed then it was time to work on mailing out the registry papers. Those papers came in yesterday's mail but I didn't get them until yesterday evening. Three of the buyers had already picked up their weanling so those 3 needed to have the registration papers mailed out today. I had to stop at Diane's office to pick up envelopes big enough to hold them then to the post office to get them mailed out. When I got back to the house there was only 16 minutes to wait for the pie to be done. The laundry machines were changed and as soon as the chicken pot pie was finished it was taken over to mom's for lunch. Karin and Ruth had kept mom working pretty hard this morning so after lunch she had a rest before starting the afternoon therapy. This time they had her try to walk with the walker down her hallway. She really IS getting better.
