daggiesmom Posted December 31, 2005 Author Share Posted December 31, 2005 Brian,Joanie, may not be able to receive flowers, but she can receive cards. Please give us the address of the hospital and the room she will be in. I would love to send her out a card... Here you go, Maryanne: Beth Israel Medical Center 1st Avenue & 16th Street 5 Linsky, Rm 02, Bed B New York, NY 10001 She will be in that room until at least Tuesday but I imagine the mailroom has a way of tracking patient moves. BTW, Joanie took her first walk today. It was short & closely monitored but it was her legs doing the work. Happy New Year, all!

Don M Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Brian: I am glad to see that Joanie is on the mend. Happy New Year to you both. Don M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maryanne Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Hi Brian, Thanks for the address. I am just going to send it to Joanie or Joan, So I imagine it will get to her. I am so glad she is getting stronger and stronger, she certainly had us worried about her for awhile. She has come a long way in such a short time since she gain consciousness. I will buy a card and sent it out tomrrow, but no mail on Monday, so she will most likely will move but the time it gets there. Hopefully, they will track her down. Anyway, I am thrilled that Joanie is on her way back to recovery. Can't keep a good women down! Especially, Joanie. HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU BOTH !!!

daggiesmom Posted January 2, 2006 Author Share Posted January 2, 2006 Hi Brian,Thanks for the address. I am just going to send it to Joanie or Joan, So I imagine it will get to her... D'oh , I see that Joanie doesn't have our last name in her profile. It is Caffrey. Also, they moved her from the stepdown unit last night. (She no longer needs their specialized care!) She should be at the following until at least tomorrow: Beth Israel Medical Center 1st Avenue & 16th Street Joan Caffrey - 5 Linsky, Rm 04, Bed A New York, NY 10001 At this point, the plan is to move Joanie to a rehab unit for about two weeks, in preparation for her release. General weakness & some pain aside, there is no downside to report. She is doing really, really well. Hell, she started dancing with a nurse who was helping her to stand. Thanks again for the great showing of care & support. Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maryanne Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 Thank you Brian for the update. I just sent the card out, and I will be gone tomorrow for a week. I hope by the time I get back Joanie will be up and about. I don't know why but I have a feeling she will be before that Take care, I am sooooo happy Joanie is on the mend and starting trouble.
