Dozier Started Physical Therapy Last Week; She Stood Very Briefly; Operations Continue

A couple hours ago, I asked how CBS correspondent Kimberly Dozier‘s recovery was progressing. Thanks to a tipster, here is Sean McManus‘ internal e-mail update, dated June 28:

“As we head into a long holiday weekend, I wanted to update you on Kimberly’s condition. She is still at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda. Kimberly has had several operations to reconstruct parts of her legs with muscle and skin grafts. She started physical therapy last week and stood — very briefly — with the help of a therapist. This is a small, first step in a very long journey for Kimberly, but a positive one. You will not be surprised to learn that she is very involved in directing her medical care and, her boyfriend reports, she has beaten just about every ‘deadline’ she’s been given by her doctors so far. I know you join me in wishing Kimberly continued energy and progress in her recuperation. By the way, her birthday is July 6.”
