Ruth is Better

Ruth, Terry’s mom, had surgery this morning. She is doing so much better it’s amazing. She had a bowel obstruction in the small intestine, which I guess isn’t uncommon – especially in older people.

She was awake only a couple of hours after surgery, lucid, talking and joking. I popped in to see her for a few minutes tonight and she looks so much better than she did yesterday.

I’m so relieved for everyone – especially for her. I hope she continues to feel better with each passing day and can come home soon.

It’s amazing that an 87 year old woman kicked pnuemonia in about a week. Now she has been through surgery and seems to be doing quite well. It’s good news all around.
