We got home on Saturday evening. She had a good day Sunday. She has been eating really well since she got home. We took her up to the doctor in Salt Lake today. She still has low Magnesium. The doctor wants to get it up. She has to take three magnesium pills with each meal each being 400 mg. The blood in her brain should be gone in two to three months. She starts therapy tomorrow in Richfield. Thanks!
