dear all i feel i am on a roller coaster ride. all day yesterday jack slept and wouldn't even talk to me. then lo and behold today our oldest son and wife came to see him. what a difference a day makes. he perked up and sieglinde said hey how about a wheelchair ride outside? son phillip helped therapist get him in wheelchair and sieglinde pushed jack outside. the hospital is very high and the rose garden has the best view of lake arrowhead. dear hubby really enjoyed the warm air and scenery. this after 10 days of therapists trying to get him in the wheel chair. i think jack doesn't want his sons to see him in bed and immobile. michelle [daughter that lives in mts.] is going to call her other brothers and tell them to come by and keep jack motivated. i know he will have more bad days but this is a start in showing interest. jack has very bad sores on his heels so the podiatrist is coming tomorrow to see jack also they are bringing in a physcoligist[sp?] for the delirium. tommorrow michelle and i are invited to sit in on staff meeting again. i don't see how dear hubby could get better treatment anywhere. we have a wonderful skilled nursing wing in hospital and they are planning to move jack into it soon. had to postpone las vegas trip till work lets up for daughter suzy which is okay since it doesn't look like jack will be coming home soon. thankfully our cabin is only 10 minutes away thanks for prayers love connie ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
