Today was a day for more improvements, as usual I was late in showing up as I was extra tired but was in time to help the therapist with his session. He was able to hold his own trunk up which he wasn't able to do yesterday. His left side is still weak but seems to be improving every day. We got the good word today ....... He will being to ARU at the old DePaul hospital here in Cheyenne starting next week as long as his CAT scan tomorrow shows everything is still fine. All of the doctors and nurses here at Cheyenne Regional Medical Center have been great and we could not have asked for better care then what they have given Peter.
I decided that Peter was in good hands and went to work and unexpectedly got a phone call from Laurel Sweazy that she was in Peters room what a surprise and a great relief. She was able to sit with him for almost the entire day, experiencing quite a few interesting things that Peter had to offer.
1.) Lunch time he sure got her number , he knows not to mess with me when it comes to eating but boy he sure had her going as he made her feed him, hint hint he has been feeding himself now for a few days , must have the beautiful face that he wanted to see closer!
2.) She tried to feed him the cranberries that've ate and just fine for us last night but for some reason today he thought that she should where them instead. Musta thought she looked better with a little purple on her.
He had a double portion for dinner as we are trying to put some weight back on him as he has lot over 20lbs, and it is so important for him to start gaining some of it back. When he gets over to the rehab unit it will be intense but will also be important for him to continue to have visitors.
It has been an over all good day for us all, Nurses have been good and it is wonderful to have all this support from everyone.
I have learned that when I first started this blog I had some of the permissions for comments set pretty strong, I have since changed that so anyone and everyone can comment and post without logging in, so feel free to leave your comments also I had transposed his room number last night he is on the 4th floor room number 4206.
