Ulrika Friday 21 May update

Up at the hospital today and had a brief meeting with Mats Kallin, the doctor in charge of Ulrika's case.

A mixture of news, most of it good.

Things are continuing to move in the right direction but perhaps a little slower than they might have expected. The infection is decreasing and the inflammation is also diminishing.

The one thing that perplexes them is the lack of motion on her left side. They did a MRI scan yesterday and could detect no ischemia (damage). So they really can't explain that.

Hopefully she will be able to move to a normal infection ward early next week.

I spent some time with her as they'd taken her off sedation. She opened her eyes a little but I couldn't really say I got much response. So I just stood there and babbled on for half an hour in the hope she'd recognise my voice.
