So when you go to see Sue does she seem sleepy? I get the feeling she is playing a cat and mouse game sometimes, like you look away and then she looks at you. Then when you look back, she closes her eyes.
All the nurses and Dr's seem to think she is "out of it", but I know better. She can hear and she listens, and can even respond sometimes, then she goes away again. Anyone who knows mom, knows she is not a quitter, and is very fiesty when she wants to be, so I am at a loss for why she is this way. Up to 10 days ago she was cleared to go to the intensive therapy unit, but after this infection, now she is acting like a big lump. Because of this, she will now go to a stepped down unit, most likely Rivergate Medical Center in Riverview. Is it like a nursing home, I guess in a way it is, but she will get her therapy, just not as tough as she would have at Wyandotte.
If you go to see her, please encourage her as much as you can, but dont make it easy on her either, its still a long road ahead.
