From Steve Dowdy:
Every time I send one of these updates, I find someone else I missed.

We visited Roylene and Virgil this afternoon (Saturday) and found Roylene much better, but still not well. The pain has subsided a great deal, and she can now walk, with the aid of a walker. Much of the reluctance to get out of bed has gone away, as has the fear of falling. She is in pretty good spirits, and wants to get out of the hospital.

She is still faced with considerable rehab work.

She is in Room 407 in St Luke's northland Hospital, 5830 NW Barry Rd , Kansas City, MO 64154, but may move soon.
