Elise doing some of her daily leg stretches

Today Elise was in fine spirits and greatly looking forward to a trip home tomorrow. It is likely to be for just a short time with the rehab folk. They are visiting to check out our home with view to Elise moving back some time in the future.

You will see that for some time her face is much more round and puffy. This is due the the extremely high Prednisolone dose that she was on originally and the daily dose which is also very high. The doctors are aiming to reduce this gradually before it becomes too dangerous.

The video link below shows Elise transferring from her bed to the wheelchair largely unaided for the very first time!
