Three Weeks Later...

Well, alot has happened in the three weeks since Daddy was in that deep, dark place. The EMTs, the CareFlight crew and the trauma surgeons did an amazing job on my dad. His sutures are to come out this week. He's learning to talk with the tracheotomy. That is to be a temporary thing. He is sitting up for an hour and a half or more at a time now. He can talk with the trach, but it's an effort.

Cards keep coming in from friends. We keep taking them up there. Daddy has set a 100 card goal for himself. We're getting there.

The church family is still feeding us and that is a tremendous help. Mom's still here with us and I think that it's good for her.

The doctors say that a stay in rehab and then a psych facility are both required before Daddy is released. It's going to be a long summer......
