Watch. Tie. What's this? Yes. No. Hospital.
Simple words that we all take for granted. But, these are the ONLY words I have heard my father say today and while that is an improvement from yesterday, it is still frustrating. I get very frustrated watching him trying to speak and get frustrated. So frustrated that I have to walk out of the room to keep from crying.
The Dr. wanted for my father to undergo intense speech therapy to regain his speech and they wanted him to do it in a rehab setting which would mean being in the hospital for another 2 weeks or so. After first, he refused. But, then "Big Sister" came along and had a few words with him (Thanks Denise) and when the Social Services lady came in, he and Vicki (btw Denise if Vicki sees you spelling her name with an "e" she'll have your head. Just saying =] )decided that it was for the best for him to start rehab. So, he will be getting moved within the next couple of days to EMMC.
Jason had his lab work done today. HIs liver, kidneys and thyroid are excellent. He is however severely anemic, so he will be getting iron supplements.
That's it for my day.
