[Nfbmo] Update on Robin

[Erin Joy Magoon]

Robin got moved to step up ICU this evening. Her face is so swollen that her eyes are swollen shut. She was able to open her left eye a little this morning. 

She's keeping down more water and even managed Apple sauce today. 

She also walked 150 feet this morning. She is speaking a little more clearly. She's in a lot of pain and she is going in and out of awareness. The doctor said that's due to the brain swelling and the pain medicine. 

Another update tomorrow
