Relief

Sam was doing really well today. In fact she seemed back to herself, where she had been a few weeks ago, before all the problems started. She even seemed to have a bit more insight than usual. She had a cardiologist appointment at Mt. Sinai, but when we got there, apparently they didn't have her down for today and the doctor was still on vacation. There was obviously a mix-up, but they have rescheduled for next monday morning. Sam seemed content to have gotten a little bit of fresh air and a bit of different scenery. She said some amazing things to me while we were waiting for her transport back. At one point she looked at me and said "I have a lot of respect for you- you've stuck with me through all this" and then she started to tear-up. Her sentence shows quite an awareness on many different levels. I too teared up and then gave her a nice big hug and kiss.
