I forgot to mention that people from Sunny Hill rehab center stopped by yesterday to evaluate Elizabeth, maybe she can go there for rehab which would be closer for us.
Sorry about all the trouble with the address to the blog, here is a shorter version:

Hopefully this is easier to read out to people over the phone. If someone is having trouble they could also email me Omer dot Magusin at gmail dot com and I will send them the blog link.
After midnight last night Elizabeth woke up every 30 minutes or so, usually just to move around a bit but sometimes to trash around for 5 to 10 minutes. By 6 am she was thrashing for 30 minutes and resting for 10. Tonight they will try to give her some melatonin, a natural sleep aid. The neurologist didn't what to have her sedated all the time as it would interfere with her recovery.
Rehab evaluated Elizabeth's ability to swallow today, she chewed the ice up but the swallowing was weak. Looks like they will make a hand splint for her left hand to help with the joints.

The bruise on her chest showed up today from the broken clavicle.

We took Elizabeth for 2 rides in wheel chair today, they seem to tire her out but it gets her out of bed.
