A call for visitors. . .

Labor Day weekend -- nice cool weather, great football games in Lincoln, and birthday #3 for Grandson Sam.  Unfortunately, Dad is not able to enjoy any of these things as he hangs out in the hospital for a while longer.  

As he's starting to be a bit more alert and aware, he's also starting to get bored and looking for company in the room.  He's not able to read or type on a computer right now, and watching TV doesn't really interest him. . .so it's all about the conversation.  

If you have any interest in stopping by, Dad will be at Methodist (room 505) for a few days yet, and possibly longer.  I know he's love to see you and make the time pass a little bit faster (even though he really doesn't have much of a concept of time right now).

Mom thought Dad looked pretty good last night, and they even ordered Valentino's pizza to be delivered to the room for the Saturday night dinner.  Not a lot happening this weekend, just more rest and some PT to continue getting him stronger.  He likely will either be evaluated for in-patient rehab again early this week, or will be discharged to Brookstone (likely) where they will work with him to get him stronger and back to a somewhat normal course of events.
