More News

As Mom had been at the hospital with Dad for two nights and parts of three days, I (Kelly) went down to give her a break. Mom and Dad are both in good spirits. The therapists are working Dad pretty hard getting him ready to head home tomorrow, Lord willing.

While there, I DID find out that the medication they have Dad on is to strengthen his heart. So, with this and the exercises that they want him to do as well as going to cardiac rehab, they might put a defribillator in after three months time.

Dad does have to walk with a cane as he is still a bit unsteady on his feet. And, he must have a "spotter" as he goes up and down stairs. But, praise the Lord, stairs aren't going to be a problem at this time.
