Mary Continues to Get Stronger

Mary had another good day today. Reenie, the two dogs and Mary headed for Oak Meadow Park and had a very nice outing. This was The Maids day so all four girls had to leave for a couple of hours. Turns out that Shauna, the 15 year old dog, needed more rests on the walk than Mary did. The best part is that Mary did the walk without her walker. That is fantastic!

After the park, lunch and short naps, they headed to The Purple Onion to pick up the pulled pork and coleslaw I ordered yesterday at Mary's request. It was very good!

Mary still feels pain now and then but no where near as much as last week. She is still taking an afternoon nap but not as long as before.

All in all, the signs are good. And, we are starting to really focus on what the surgeon will say on Friday. Our amateur assessment is that she is very close to being declared successful for Step 2. We shall see.
