Ladies I want all of you to pray from your heart for our Rosemary. Below is an update from her husband from CaringBridge.
Rosemary is only very slowly making progress in her therapy.Today she did, for the first time, with great effort, manage to pull herself up from sitting in her wheelchair into a standing position for several seconds. But the JFK has decided that her progress is much too slow to benefit from the acute rehab center at JFK, and will be recommending transfer to a sub-acute center, where the rehab training would be less intense. This transfer is likely to take place in the next several days.
Her progress seems impeded by the inexorable advance of her cancer, which has not been able to be treated since her collapse and illness in early September. The recent MRI of her head showed a small metastasis in her skull bone, which likely is pressing on a nerve center and causing her inner ear symptoms, and a numbness in her chin. She is needing a lot of medical care. During the next several days, we'll have to be making a number of important decisions. Your thoughts and prayers are very much appreciated. Paul
