Good morning everyone. Dad is coming along just fine. His therapies are strong and his movement on his right side is getting better. He still does not have control of his eyelid which continues to remain closed. However, can see movement of the eye under the eyelid and very small movement sometimes when he blinks. His volume comes and goes. The doctors are thinking of releasing him by the end of this week. We shall wait and see what happens next.
In the meantime, we're getting his house handicap ready by placing ramps, rails, equipment, etc, ready should they send him home. Yesterday, I took him a cut off golf club shaft with the grip attached so he can begin working his right hand and getting the feel of holding a golf club. He really liked this. We also wheeled him outside and around the property. He seemed to enjoy this as well. And for the grand prize, we took him to the cafe where he picked what ever he wanted. He was like a kid in a candy store. It's really hard to believe that he'll be in the hospital 10 weeks tomorrow. I believe he's ready to continue his therapy at home. I'll keep you posted.
