About 45 minutes ago we suddenly had an indication that the blockage may be resolving on its own. Penny is feeling much better.
No word yet on how long progress needs to be maintained before they will begin talking about discharge. But usually they want to introduce food very slowly (ice chips, then liquids, then full liquids, etc., etc.) and monitor how things respond. For now we're hoping things continue to improve this afternoon.
Comment from the roommate (who is just being discharged after a longer stay): "This is the happy room."
