Kansas arrival...

Good news- Linda is back in Kansas! After a long evening of travel on Tuesday, Christy and Linda arrived safe and sound (and exhausted) in Wichita. Dan met them at the airport and took my Mom directly to the Wesley Rehab hospital. After evaluation on Wednesday they predict that Mom will be at the hospital for about 2 weeks and then will be able to return home, though she will need to return to the hospital daily for physical, occupational and speech therapy. Mom is having trouble speaking- she pretty much only says "okay" and "I don't know". She also has difficulty with her vision, it's blurry or double- I don't think we know for sure because she isn't talking. Until Linda is more verbal we are keeping her visits down to just family but when she is has more strength and speech I'm sure she would love visitors. Britt and her kiddos are coming out to help on Monday and I (Dawnelle) will be coming out on the 12th. It'll be a long road to recovery but Mom is one tough cookie.
