They moved Wendy from the isolation room to a shared room this afternoon. This, we hope, is an indication that her condition is improving. She was able to eat her Cream of Wheat this morning and two 125 ml cartons of milk, a banana, water and juice. Her goal is a minimum of 1000 calories a day and normal fluid intake.
She's feeling much better and was able to talk today. She's coughing a lot less and her colour is a healthy pink now. Her throat is still sore and it hurts to swallow, but she can at least swallow now. They've taken her off antibiotics and blood enhancers and her blood count is now normal and her oxygen saturation was 95%. The professionals think that her own system can now manage her healing if she gets proper nutrition. We're looking forward to her leaving that place soon.
