(Jane is back to drinking cranberry juice after passing the bladder stone, but is feeling okay and no more stones have showed up. She said that when she was alone in hydro this morning she felt her right foot [of the broken leg] lift up spontaneously at the toes. The left foot moved also.

(The supper tray came by 4:45. Five minutes later I turned Jane. She did well. “I feel like I could alternate sessions and motions until nine o’clock tonight,” she’d said just before I turned her. “It’s sure as shit something I couldn’t do before.”
