Today the Dr. pulled Grammy off of her antibiotic pills. She is excited & a little scared. I think the antibiotics are kind of a security blanket for her. She was feeling pretty good today.
Grammy & Grandpa just celebrated their 53rd wedding anniversary (or re-versry if you are Grammy). Grandpa took her shopping for a new outfit to wear & then they went away for Sunday night. Grammy wasn't feeling 100%, but they still had fun. The desk clerk upgraded their room to a suite because it was their anniversary.
Last week she went over to visit Steve, Wendy, & the kids. She said that when there were a lot of conversations happening...she noticed that she had a hard time hearing. She told me that her right ear is clearing & she can hear better out of it.
I am so proud of Grammy & her progress. Grammy is having a hard time being patient & giving her body time to recover. She wants to be back to normal NOW!

A new update...
Grammy went to the Ear Dr. today. She has permanent ear damage in both ears. The Doctor wants her to get hearing aids, but she wants to wait because her hearing is improving everyday.
She gets to go swimming on Friday & she is excited. Grandpa said that she will love it because it is like bathtub water.
If there is anymore news...I will update again!

Good News!!
Today Grammy gets her pick line taken out today!! She is so excited!! The daily trips to the hospital are OVER!!!! She still has to go in a couple of times a week to get her blood thinner checked.
Her main Dr. released her yesterday & told her that she only has to go back if she feels there is anything wrong. Grammy got all dolled up to go into the Dr. because he had seen her at her worst & she wanted him to see the real Grammy. She did her hair & painted her nails. She told him that "this is the real Betty!" Grammy asked the Dr. when she will get feeling & he just kept saying "You were VERY sick."
Grammy went to get her hair cut & done on Tuesday. She had to put earplug in her ears so that water didn't get in her ears. She loves her new hair do.
We are so happy about Grammy's progression. Her voice is getting stronger. When I would talk to her before...it was a whisper, but now she sounds so strong. While I was talking to her my microwave timer went off in the other room & Grammy heard it. I was really surprised!
She goes into the Ear Dr. some time next week...so we'll see what he has to say about her progress.
Grandpa took Grammy to her first restaurant since she got sick. She was tired, but did well.
