Tonight while visiting Dad he was just full of questions, he is worried about many day to day things. Mom and I did our best to reassure him that we are taking care of things. He asked about his tools and his boat and etc. so he is really thinking now. Dad and I also talked about a "handi-cap" fishing bracket so he can still fish with one arm, he sure perked up after that. He is worried about what he will and won't be able to do.
Dad is beginning to drink from a glass and feed himself again. He is doing well, but still needs a little help with his food. He says his leg doesn't do any thing except hold him up, they are working on it though and it is getting stronger. As far as his talking he is getting better everyday, although he still stumbles on getting the right word and he slurs badly.
Dad is still getting some vitamins and nutrients through his peg tube, other than that he doesn't have any tubes or IVs hooked to him. All of the regular medications that he normally took he is given in a liquid or crushed pill. Margie did give him one that can only be given in pill form and he swallowed it with no problem. So once again I can give a good report and we can all feel good about his progress.
Please keep the prayers and positive thoughts flowing his way....
Love to All;
