The Move

Highlights of Mary Scovell's life during the past 3 months.

This was her first stay overnight in a hospital. 9/11
The stay that was predicted to last one month lasted 3 months is going to require extensive rehabilitation.
The stay included 4 visits to various intensive care wards lasting several weeks in all.
Before she left Froedtert today, 12/11 she had accomplished the following:
Her leukemia is in remission.
Nose hose out
She can feed herself real food.
She can sign her name.
She can drink water.
She can talk.
She is getting up to one hour of rehabilitation and is asking for more.
Her hair is growing back.
Today was her first ambulance ride but they didn't use the lights or the siren.

Mary has made the move from Froedtert Hospital to:
The Heartland Health Care Center
N26 W23977 Watertown Road
Pewaukee, WI 53188
Room 509
She doesn't have a phone yet but just give us a couple of days.

Keep checking in.
