Dancing and Singing

I was quite anxious about visiting Sam this evening, but when I arrived she was calm and in a happy mood. I was told that she had been doing karaoke again for about two hours this afternoon and was also dancing in her wheelchair. She again was hogging the mike, but apparently shared it a bit more than the last time. I did talk during the day with the social worker about what occurred over the weekend and Jenny's interpretation was that Sam is becoming more aware and this is what happens when people start getting better. She knows it is a really tough moment. The doctors will also discuss her situation this week and make any adjustments to her medication, etc. Jenny and I also discussed the possibility of my getting a pass for Sam to go home for a day or weekend and what that would involve. It was great to begin discussing this possibility, although one main problem is that there are 19 steps to our house, and at the moment, Sam can't do steps. There is no way of getting her into the house quite yet, but I will work on that.
