Dad has a new room at National Churches 206b (by the window). This is a more extended care situation.

Dad had a great weekend. He said I love you to Mom for the first time since the stroke. You can only imagine what a moment that was for both! He also sang Happy Birthday to both of his granddaughters. They were both so happy! What an incredible birthday gift for both. His rehab is going well. He has asked mom for a coke and a coffee, neither he can have yet. He tried to steal mom's crackers, which again sadly he cannot have. We get closer to both every day. Thank you for your wonderful thoughts and prayers they mean the world to us.

Dad ate pureed au gratin potatoes and pureed bbq chicken today. He loved every bite! We are still seeing great things and huge improvements. Thank you for your love and support! God is good!

Dad is doing great. He had is first Dr.'s visit outside of the facility yesterday. He rode in a wheelchair, which had to be a great change. His speech is continuing to strengthen. He will get to eat mashed potatoes today! His right side is getting stronger, but we are not seeing voluntary movement quite yet. Thank you for your love and support!

Dad is doing really well at the new facility. He is truly happy and motivated. We are seeing continuous improvements. Thank you for your love and support, it truly has been amazing!

Dad has settled in nicely to his new place. The therapy is great. He has said without prompting "my name is". When he doesn't overthink, his brain will say all kinds of stuff. Thank you for checking in!
