He’s one giant step closer to home
Today, he was transferred to the physio program at a hospital 10 minutes up the road from me. His room is a little bigger and nicer than his old one. He’s sharing a room but it’s a room for 4 and she’s across and down from him so there is some privacy for visits.
I was up to see him tonight with my parents and the staff that we met all seem very nice. He saw the doctor briefly tonight and he was told it might not even be four weeks before he’s home. They aren’t going to make him perfect before he comes home, just to the point where he can function on his own, but with aids in the house like a raised toilet seat. His main focus will be getting up and down stairs.
It will be nice to have him home. Not only because it will mean this nightmare is getting further behind us, but just because I miss being able to look at him and hug him and kiss him whenever I want. Not that we’ll be like teenagers again..he won’t have the strength for that LMAO but it’s isolating not to have physical contact with anyone.
My second great news of the day is that Grace has booked her plane ticket for her visit. She’ll be here from Feb 1- 11 and I’m already counting down the days. I can’t WAIT to see her. Not like it’s been years, but this two months has felt like it. I know she’ll be busy with her friends but I requested one full day and evening with her. I’m smiling just writing all of this.
As my fb post said today, Richard got transferred closer to home, Grace booked her plane ticket, and my coupon for free cookies arrived in the mail all on the same day? Hello to the best day in a long time LOL
YAAAAAYYYYY
