Tuesday 10/25

Dad had a really good day. Worked really hard in his therapies. We found out he will probably get to go to rehab. He will for sure get to stay for 7-10 days, but if he really progresses, he could stay for up to 3 weeks. Then we have to figure out where he will go next. Once he is much stronger, he will be able to go back to rehab for more intense therapy.
I was so proud of how well he worked today. Here are a few pictures.



He sat in his wheelchair for about 3 hours this morning.


They brought the contraption in again. This helps stand him up. It puts lots of pressure on his body and he was standing straight up several times! =)
The therapist kept asking him of he needed to sit down and he'd shake his head no!!




However, we've learned that as soon as we have good, the bad has got to follow. Mon was there tonight and his pulse ox was low. Respiratory told her not to be surprised if he's back on oxygen tomorrow. Hopefully not, though............

Good report, AK. VERY glad to hear about the rehab. That picture of him with the Hog baseball cap on looks like the old Jack! Thanks for the report.

Great report. Maybe your "chat" with him has made an impact. Go Jackie! He looks great and standing, that is so good to hear.
