At Stanford

Nan was transferred to Stanford yesterday.  We went to see her yesterday evening, she had been up all day due to move, and was very fatigued. Due to the fatigue she was somewhat disoriented, though she definitely recognized us and held Fritz's hand and knew that her mother was there.

Today my sister and I went to visit with the Doodlebug in tow.  When we arrived she was receiving some physical therapy. She was much more alert today, able to speak a bit more clearly, and delighted to see her grandbaby. Words largely fail her, but her face and eyes remain very expressive. Tom was able to go over to a good friend's house nearby for a proper lunch and a shower. Her doctors are collecting data and figuring out what to do next treatment-wise. She was able to articulate very clearly to her neuro-oncologist that she is ready to go home.

Please take a moment to leave a message, with your name (if you are comfortable) so that Nan knows you've visited and are thinking of her.
