I yield the floor to Colleen – who spoke to her.  She posted it in an earlier Comment – but it deserves its own posting:

I did call Joanne this Sunday afternoon at 3:00. She has had a couple of MRI’s but didn’t go into detail about them. She mentioned that both elbows were really torn up. Her thigh was in major pain too.

I asked her about her shoulder and she said that it wasn’t doing too bad, but the areas were. She’s thinking that she’ll only be in there another day. I asked her what they’ll do and she’s not quite sure, but mentioned some type of rehab location, since she’s not able to stand up on her own.

She mentions that she’s qualifies for VA medical health assistance, so maybe there’s a rehab place for her to stay and get her Physical & Occupational Therapy. Me not being military, I’m not familiar with VA programs.

She did ask me if I called earlier, and I told her I didn’t. Was that you Lona? She said she dropped the phone and wasn’t able to reach it.

Actually, I’ve called a couple of times.  I have a special phone for the profoundly hearing impaired – but I didn’t get an answer.  Not unexpected in a hospital where tests and x-rays are always going on.

JD’s friend this evening added that she begins her PT treatments – so sounds like “in house” before her transfer to Rehab.

A heartfelt “THANK YOU!” to Colleen!  I’m sure it did JD’s spirit a world of good!
