I flew back to Princeton early yesterday morning, so my last visit with Dad was on Monday night. But Mom reports that he spent most of the day out of bed working with his various therapists, and even taking a short walk (with the help of a walker) outside of his room and down the hallway. That's amazing, really, considering that he didn't leave the bed at all for more than a week while in Florida. His occupational therapist predicts he'll be able to walk unassisted in a few days.
Mom also reports that Dad really enjoyed his visits from Shelia, Jane, Deborah, and Travis. Thanks to you all! And huge thanks to Dominee, who took time out of her crazy schedule to sit with Dad yesterday morning. Mom was able to make her first trip back to Pine Ridge to check the mail, collect some different clothes, etc. We're so grateful for all the help we've had from friends and family.
