How sweet, Emme!
I saw her last night. She *is* doing better.
They did some pretty significant med changes. She is being very honest with them.
This hospital has many, many groups during the day (like 7 or 8!). She told me about a couple and showed me projects that she made in two of the groups. She is clearly working very hard.
This is the first time she has ever been in the hospital for more than a week. It seems to me like she has moved past the acute crisis and is now in a position to really learn some things there. She is recognizing this and isn't pushing to get out too quickly. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if she got out either today or tomorrow. (I was in a different hospital over the 4th of July weekend 2 years ago - they really tried to discharge anyone they could before the holiday. It was a 4 day holiday that year, and it was long and slow...)
I have printed out the posts for her, and any emails that I got for her. She really appreciates the support that she gets from you guys (and so do I).
Emme, I'll let her know you were asking about her.
