The trip to Henry Ford went much smoother today! When I asked Kerrie what she thought of the wheelchair transport van taking her to Henry Ford, instead of Mom trying to get her in and out of the car, she said it “was a great thing to happen” 🙂 No offense to Mom, or me, I’m sure… But it has to be so much easier on her.
According to the BMT team everything is going very well and they are more than pleased with Kerrie’s progress from the transplant as well as her physical and mental progress.
Physical Therapy received the OK to start Rehab, so Kerrie gets her first in-home session tomorrow. Speech Therapy starts on Saturday.. not sure abotu Occupational Therapy yet. The goal is to Kerrie to the point where she’s able to go to outpatient therapy at a Rehab Center.. PT has been approved for 2 session per week, for 6 weeks, but Mom and the Therapist want to get her into outpatient rehab before that if they can.
She’s got a lot of work to do!
Kerrie sounded in very good spirits tonight.. even better when I told her I would see her tomorrow. Can’t wait to get home to see her!

Jen that is wonderful news about Kerrie. I know she has a long road ahead of her but I know she will keep it up. I’m so glad that your mom could get a transportation van for Kerrie and I know it made it a lot easier for her not having to get her in and out of the car.
Kerrie were rooting for you so keep up the good work and show everyone that you can do it and I’m so proud of you for doing such a GREAT!!!!! job.
Joan your also doing a great job of taking care of her and I knew you could do it even though it’sa lot of work but you know what it’s worth every dime and sleep because she is your daugther. I know every mom would be doing the same thing that your doing right now. Keep up the good work.
Love,
Sandy
