Dad had another good day today. He's really making progress with his swallowing, and was able to to drink some apple juice and eat some pudding today. And the PT had him sitting up on the edge of his bed for a while, and he managed to keep his balance pretty well.
He's been medically cleared to leave the hospital at this point. Right now Mom and BJ are working on finding the right place for him to go from here. They've seen several good options, but we obviously want a place that Dad would be happy with. We're hoping he'll be moving on in the next few days, and will update you when we know more.
On an administrative note - a thought for those of you who are reading this daily. I think if you subscribe to the blog (there should be something about that at the bottom of the page), you'll get a notice when we post something new. Then you don't have to hop on and check it all the time. Just my two cents!
We hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving! We are thankful for each one of you; for those who care enough to read all of this, and for those who have taken the time to call and text and email us to show your love and support. We can't thank you enough. And we are obviously all thankful that Dad is still with us to celebrate this year. I wish we could all be together tomorrow, but knowing he will be with Mom, BJ, Heather and Aunt Jean is enough! And maybe if he's lucky Mom will sneak him some of her famous candied sweet potatoes :) Ok, probably not, but I'm sure he'll be wishing he could have some!
Thank you again, and Happy Thanksgiving!
