Dad was moved to rehab yesterday around 1:30 PM, but for this journal we are calling today his first day in rehab. And it is, it is his first full day there.
I know dad isn't crazy about where he is but he knows he is there to work so he can come home. Today he managed to sit on the side of the bed by himself. I am so very PROUD of my dad.
The speech therapist said that it is possible for dad to be on a regular diet by the end of next week. No promises but it is a goal she is working towards. When that happens and dad shows he is eating enough to get all the nutrition he needs that way then the feeding tube can come out. I can't wait for that to happen.
Visitors are great for dad so if you can and would like to please feel free to go see him. The place is a little depressing so anything to help keep dad cheered up and heading towards his goals is welcome.
Keep those prayers going up for dad and me.
Kathy
