Katrina receives acupuncture and physical therapy three times a week. Despite Katrina’s progress, these therapies are exhausting for her, which in turn makes her too tired to eat. We are now trying to make sure she gets enough rest to keep it all in balance. The cognitive side of her brain is still fairly inactive. She doesn’t talk or obey commands, but she’s eating and walking with minimal assistance so we are thrilled about that. We are still hoping for that awakened moment, but her progress so far has happened a little at a time.

Steve and I took her over the weekend to Balboa Park. We met a band there dressed like robots, who came over to say hello and take a photo with Trina. From the parrots outside to the century-old paintings inside, we took Trina to see it all.

We are thankful to have access to the MTS transit system for free. The drivers are very personable and caring. Otherwise, we would not be able to take her on all these adventures to keep her mind stimulated outside of the hospital!
