Here is the latest scoop on our sweet Momma!
Our Dad met Monday morning with Dr. Kim and he continues to be optimistic of Mom's ultimate recovery. He showed Dad the latest cat scan taken Sunday night and it does not show anything that is worrisome to Dr. Kim. There is still blood being absorbed back into the brain (that's a very good thing!) and there is still some swelling which will subside over time. What we really can't predict is how much time it will take.
Yesterday evening Mom was finally discharged from The Neuro ICU at Memorial Hermann and was relocated to the Kindred Long Term Acute Care Hospital a short distance away in the Texas Medical Center. She will be under the care of Dr. Vinh who is also a caring and compassionate Doctor. His goal is to continue the improvement of Mom's physical condition and to see her become alert and responsive and begin simple physical therapy.
In time, we would then move her to TIRR, Texas Institute for Rehabilitation and Research, also part of the Memorial Hermann System. The rehab therapy there will be very intense covering all aspects of physical, speech and mental rehabilitation. All of this will take time and lots of effort on Mom's part!
Please continue to keep her in your prayers for more responsiveness and healing recovery.
Thank you!
Love, Rachel and John Sedlak

Another step forward. We'll take it. My prayer is that God gives us the patience to wait until he feels it is time for Cath'y next step. He is in control and all good things will happen in his time frame.
