Wednesday Morning, May 21st

Joel Jr and I just returned from our morning visit with Senior. He was finishing up his breakfast as we arrived and was excited to start his physical therapy at 10:30 today. We waited around for awhile with hopes of seeing the doctors but they didn't show up while we were there. The nurse will give us the reports from the doctors' assessments later today.

He is back on two of his heart medications along with the blood thinner. He is taking those orally. His heart is doing really good -- the nurse Charlie (so nice) said that his heart and vitals were excellent throughout the night.

I told the nurse to leave ANOTHER note for the doctor to see if SR could get a bath or shower...geez louise..they have to sign for EVERYTHING. He is starting to stink ;).

My parents brought up their portable DVD player to help pass the time as Sr is getting really, really bored. I got it all hooked up for him and he plans to watch Three's Company episodes (my favorite), National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation and Fatal Attraction throughout the day.

We left him with a cup of coffee reading today's paper. He was jovial and looking forward to Pam and Sarah coming up.

I will post his physical therapy report later this evening.

Much Love, Michelle
