May 9 Update from Beth

just got done chatting with my sister, Martha who is at Mom's along with my sister-in-law, Sharon. Martha reports that mom is doing well. The rash from the antibiotic is gone, her surgery leg wounds are healing very well, she's walking a bit more, and even went outside to catch a few rays yesterday. Today they took her up to the hospital in Damariscotta for a chest xray that was ordered by her surgeon. Mom, Martha and maybe Auntie Jo are headed to Portland to meet with the surgeon, Dr. Weldner for Mom's follow-up visit this Monday. The xray was needed for that appointment. Mom still has quite a bit of shortness of breath when she does any kind of moving about. That remains uncomfortable but they will get some info about that from Dr. Weldner. We have quite a list of questions for him!!It sounds like things are going smoother than last week! Ya-hoo!
