Joel spent the majority of the day with Sr and this evening the girls and I went back to visit him. He was moved from ICU to a cardiac room and is doing incredible. He had no IV's and was sporting a portable heart monitor...allowing him to move around the room freely. He went for a small walk during our visit and was in great spirits.
As we were leaving for dinner, Pam arrived with a suitcase full of things for Sr to do because he was "bored". They were getting ready to play cards and then they were going to eat dinner together. Pam is hanging in there and is so relieved because of Sr's amazing improvements over the past 24 hours. He really had us very concerned.
Sr will have more assessments done by the doctors tomorrow and will continue with OT (occupational therapy) and PT (physical therapy). If no major set backs occur, I would imagine Sr will get to home within the next few days. He will have quite a few follow up doctor appointments after he goes home...but, hey, we will take them all! Whatever it takes to get him better.
Sr has golf league on Thursday night and wanted to know if he was gonna be able to play...holy cow...we need to go back to the "common sense" approach the docs talked about! ;)
His recovery really is a miracle and we are so thankful for all the prayers sent our way...they have definitely been answered.
I will post more tomorrow after my morning visit at the hospital with Sr.
Love, Michelle
