No; I did not forget Mondays Post, I realize that at this point of Dads recovery process there is not much change. Therefore to avoid boring everyone with repetive blogs and taking the chance of boring you all. I will start posting on Mondays to cover the weekend and on Fridays to update you on his progress for the week.
Dad is still making progress beyond what was expected for him. They have given him a different wheelchair, we got him some new shoes, He can now move himself around with his left foot. This is giving him a better sense of independance, he moved himself out of the dining room and went to the end of his hall and watched outside for a while. He can take himself to therapy and around the center fairly well.
Sunday, Dorothy and Larry stopped in for a nice visit, seems when Dad starts to get down he gets visitors that seem to perk him up. Tuesday Uncle Bob, Aunt Dee, Fred and Betty were in to see him during lunch. Dad is doing a great job feeding himself and drinking, he occasionally asks for help, generally towards the end or if whatever he is eating is in a small bowl.
We have been discussing what to do for their anniversary, which is Monday (52 years...WOW), Might get them Chinese carry out, Dad doesn't think he is ready to go out yet.... we'll see. Cathy (one of his aides) is going to make them a cake, so maybe we'll just let them have a quiet evening in.
I will post again on Friday and then begin next week with the two day post,
Please keep the prayers and positive thoughts flowing his way
Love to All;
