Lots of Therapy!

Hi everyone! Today was Dad's first full day of therapy. It sounds like he was in therapy until around 3:00 p.m. He looks so good. Everyday I see him he just keeps looking better. He said he has been able to give himself a shower everyday, which he had been looking forward to! He has help getting to the shower, and when he is done getting out of the shower, but he can do everything else. Mike said today the social worker was in and said that they are having a meeting about him tomorrow morning and will be discussing when they think he can be discharged. She told Mike he must be doing really well because they usually don't have this meeting this soon. So we were all very glad to hear this. Braden and Avery went with me to the hospital tonight to have a visit with Dad. He was very happy to see them and kept telling them how much he misses them. They love going to the hospital to see him. They are both so eager to get him things or just lay in bed and watch T.V. with him. When we arrived he was getting an eye exam from the Optomologist. He seems to think the double vision Dad is experiencing is from a muscle behind his eye. He said Dad should just make an appointment when he gets out of the hospital. He couldn't do the proper exam at bedside. He said it would have to be done in the office. He really didn't seem to concerned, so that was good also.

Dad showed me his schedule for therapy everyday. It seemed to look like he would be busy from 8:30 a.m. until around 3:00 p.m. If you are planning a visit I would suggest going after 3:00. If you don't mind watching a bunch of therapy ,then you are more than welcome to go watch. I just know during that time he is pretty busy. He does get 15-20 min. breaks in between each session. Thanks to everyone who follows this blog. We really appreciate it! Talk to you all tomorrow, Amy
