Good morning! Although I don't know if it's a good morning or not. I had this post mostly done and it suddenly turned blue and everything except the "good morning" was gone. I hope that's not an indication of how the entire day is going to go!

Bill had another good day, although he complained all morning about being tired. He said he slept good and he was sleeping when I got there so I don't know. He finally got his scrambled eggs and hated them. Said they tasted terrible. So, he got some oatmeal instead and said it tasted pretty good. Dressed himself for OT and did all of his work for PT. Michelle brought a chair pedal thing in for him to use this weekend. He can sit in his wheelchair and pedal or put it on a table and use it with his arms.

He actually looked more like the old Bill at one point yesterday. His mouth wasn't drooping and he was speaking very clearly. Hopefully that will continue.

The wound vac was replaced yesterday afternoon and it actually looked even better than it had with just a gauze packing for 24 hours. We're going to try to coordinate the dressing change and the next appointment. Maybe it can be on a day when the vac is due to be changed so it doesn't miss a day or stay uncovered too long. It's come too far to have a problem now.

John and his family are coming tomorrow for a week and Bill is very excited. John just wants to spend time with his dad and I'm going to take some time off, at least a few hours a day to get some stuff around the house.

All for now, have a great week-end.
