Sick and Recovering
It hasn't been the most eventful week for Dad. He has been sick, I mean really sick. On Monday night he was up much of the night going to the bathroom and Tuesday morning he began vomiting. I took him to the doctor who sent him to the hospital for tests who gave him tests and a shot to stop the vomiting and sent him home. He hasn't been able to go to adult care this week, but mostly he has slept to get some strength back. Last night he had a full supper, his first real full meal since Monday. He seems much better today physically. He was certainly chatty at lunch today rambling on with a mix of old stories that were unconnected. Even when no one was paying any more attention, since he wasn't going anywhere and all the stories are old, he still sat there chatting away. He told us just before going back to his room that he can use all the music he had planned for last Tuesday when he goes back to "that place" again next Tuesday and play the piano. With that he waved good bye and left. That is his week.
