Yesterday he walked three laps around the ICU with the nurse pulling his IV pole and Bob pushing a wheelchair with his monitor in it. Quite an adventure. Whoo Hoo! He is now keeping his blood pressure up on his own and has not shown stroke-like symptoms. He played a mean game of checkers with Chris, too.
Today he moved to the Stroke and Brain Unit. His blood still needs monitoring. We can’t go home until it is where it needs to be.
He went to Physical Therapy, and he’s supposed to continue practicing walking up and down the hallway off and on all day. He was exhausted after the short walk and stairs.
He reminded me yesterday that he really would like some good jokes, folks! Youtube videos are fine, too. Just post the link in the comments section, or send me an email.
Thanks again for all the prayers and notes of concern and support. We love you all.
Hebrews 4:16 “Let us come boldly to the very throne of God and stay there to receive God’s mercy and to find grace to help us in our times of need.” (Bob found this verse meaningful this week on a card he received) Amen and Amen.
There were four men in the waiting room waiting for their wives to give birth. The nurse comes out and tells the first dad, "Congratulatsions, your wife just had twins!!!!" The father responds, "What a coincidence, I work for the Minnesota Twins!!!"
ReplyDeleteThe nurse comes back out a little later and tells the next dad, "Congratulations, your wife just had triplets!!!!" The new dad replies, "What a coincidence, I work for the 3M company!!!"
The nurse comes back out a few minutes later and tells the third dad, "Congratulations, you wife just had quadruplets!!!!" The father responds "Wow, I work for the Four Season Hotel!!!!"
Meanwhile, the fourth dad passes out. When he comes to, the nurse and the other three dads are standing over him asking what is the matter... he responds "I work for 7Up..."
Here is my all time favorite youtube cat video
