Martha was really awake and responsive this morning. She even opened her mouth to attempt to talk. Chloe was telling her that she was moving back home. I believe what she was trying to say was "oh hell no" . But, she really doesn't have a say at this point. Chloe will move home in about a month. I"m sure she will feel much better being here. The key to when the move to will take place is when Martha is out of ICU and her condition stays stable. Then Dave will feel better about leaving her for a couple of days to move Chloe back home. Her mood is up and she is awake much more often. However, there is still a great deal of swelling on her brain and the big problem is blood clots in both of her legs. The worry right now is that a clot could break loose and cause a problem in her lungs or heart. They are trying to slowly dissolve the clots at this time. So she is not out of the woods yet.
She was continuing to celebrate her birth week and seems to be enjoying the wonderful cards she has been sent. Thank you everyone!!!

Saw Martha on Friday to wish her "Happy Birthday week!" I don't know what we're going to do for a brithday celebration encore next year when it's a ....really BIG birthday....ending in an "0"....Maybe it will have to be "birthday month." Anyway, the visit was punctuated with lots of eye rolling and shrugs......signature Martha behavior :-). Also had a nice visit with Dave, who shared that Martha didn't seem all that pleased that Chloe is moving home. I think she's worried that the girls will now out number her! Oh, well....... :)
