Place: Richardson Comments: We are cleared to go and papers signed. We're excited to start rehab and for him to be able to come home. God is good. 😺
Place: Richardson Comments: It looks like we may be leaving hospital and going to rehab tomorrow, Sunday. Keeping my fingers crossed it's tomorrow. 🤞10 days is long enough here.
Place: OKC Comments: Life is full of peaks and valleys, isn’t it? So pleased you are out of the last valley and enjoying some “mountaintop views.” Great news about the rehab facility and about Charles doing well. Let’s enjoy these “smiley moments.” Get some rest…you have been dealing with a lot of things. 😁😁😁😁😁
Place: Richardson Comments: Thank you Ada Ann. You are so right, that's why I was determined to get him to a good place. Yesterday was the best day in the last 5 weeks. I believe we are at the top of a long hard climb up hill and the rest will be much easier. The main reason is No More Pain! Will let you know when he transfers to the rehab center. Thank you Ada Ann for posting the good news about Charles surgery. I did talk with him yesterday and he sounded good. He is home and friend is staying with him for a week since he can't drive yet. God heard all the many prayers for Charles and Don. Thank you. ❤️😻
Place: NH Comments: Sandy, wonderful news about Don. It is good that you got him in a rehab....so important to get moving. Love you lots....get some rest
Place: Richardson Comments: I just can't stop talking. This is the first night I've got home and didn't have a million things to do. Paul, I hate to be the bearer of sad news but . . . The El Fenix there on Colorado is gone! 😥 They tore it down and are in the process of building a big apartment complex. Everyday as I drive past it makes me sad. Also, last night when I got home my down stairs ac wasn't working 🙀 hotter than an oven in the bedroom. Called our longtime AC guy and he actually answered at 6:30. Came out this morning and fixed it. 😺 Ok, I'm thru for the night. Will let you know when we leave the hospital and go to rehab. .
Place: Richardson Comments: Me and my fat fingers hit wrong key before ready. 😯 Sorry. Anyway, I found the rehab place I want last night and I confirmed this morning it's on our ins plan. Not sure when the transfer from NCCU to rehab will be maybe Sun or Mon, probably as soon as paperwork is done. The rehab place is Remington and it's on Lookout at plano rd in Richardson. Only 6 easy miles from my house, unlike the hard 26 miles out hwy 75 to downtown and around and thru that horrible mixmater and then to Colorado blvd. Don has been thru so much the last 4 weeks and then the surgery, I wanted him to have a nice rehab place to get strong and well again. I showed him the brochure and he seemed pleased. Thanks to all of you and the many prayer lists we have been on I believe he is on the way to a full recovery and pain free. ❣️
Place: Richardson Comments: Been a busy 24 hours. Don is doing well and has been doing some short walks in the hall. Keep in mind that's with a walker and someone with him. Since he was down and out for 4 weeks prior to this one, he has lost all his muscle mass and is very weak. Got news yesterday Dr approved him to go to rehab so can get his strength back and on his feet again. I wanted to make sure he was at a clean, nice and fully staffed place. Since Aug 10th he's been in 4 ERs at 3 different hospitals. All were terrible! Over crowded and under staffed! He was admitted to 2 hospitals and neither were very good. This Neuro Critical Care unit is the best by far.
Place: Does Moines, IA Comments: Great news about Charles! Prayers will continue for all. ❤️ I’m in rockin’ 😉 Des Moines for a Jim Curry concert. Jim is a great JD tribute musician and singer. Have a great weekend, everyone!
Place: NH Comments: I spoke with Charles this morning. Successful surgery and he is home resting.
Place: Waller Comments: Sandy, That is GREAT News on Don! Yea, God, Thank you Lord!! HE answers prayers. We will continue to pray. Everyone - Have a great fall weekend! Janice
Place: OKC Comments: Aaaaaaaaargh. Colorado Blvd El Fenix is permanently closed. Everyone is going to have to use a different hospital instead of Methodist, or is it Baylor? I forget. 🥸
Place: OKC Comments: Doesn’t seem like it could have turned out any better! Praise God!! Allow me this one bit of nonsense: cannot help it, but when you talk about Colorado Blvd, my mind goes right to the El Fenix. Yes, I am a hopeless case. Now, here’s to Charles.
Place: Atlanta Comments: That is wonderful news Sandy! I cannot imagine how stressful and terrifying this has been for you all. Prayers that it does truly last a lifetime and Don will get back to living a pain free life. And I agree with everyone else; don’t forget to take care of yourself too. Thanks for sharing this wonderful news.
Place: Richardson Comments: Yesterday afternoon Dr Meyrat, the neurosurgeon, came to see us and everything looks good. Did CT scan on head and no bleeding or clots. He has no numbness on his face and is talking easily. Dr said it was a success and should last a lifetime. It was scary right before the surgery when Dr kept telling us all the things that could go wrong and possible side effects when cutting into skull and separating nerves. But, none of those happened and I thank each of you for the prayers as they were answered. 🙏🙏 Just so you know, once I pull out of my driveway I don't pick up the phone for text or calls. Driving hwy 75 and navigating thru the mix master to get to Colorado Blvd is a challenge in itself! 😯 Sometimes its later in day before I can respond. I've been telling Don all the friends that have been praying for him and sending well wishes. It makes him smile. Gotta go. 💖 |
