It was wonderful to sleep in this morning - sorry Brandy and all those parents who are sleep deprived! Today I did something for "me". I stayed home in the morning and fixed pancakes for Kimberly and myself. I then when to our church choir retreat. I really enjoyed the fellowship and singing.
Steve and I had a great visit although it began a little later than is usually does. For the last almost six weeks I have been getting to the hospital around noon or 1:00pm. I watch him with therapy and then take care of him until 7:00 or 8:00pm. Today I didn't get there until 4:00pm. He wanted our friend, Craig, that was visiting Mr. Steve to call me and let me know where he was so I could come visit him. Now how could I forget??? He gets a little confused from time to time. Ask him about catering for Eddie Murphy and you will know what I mean!
Today he had "off" from therapy. Boy, he really enjoyed that. I keep warning him that these 2 days off will go by quickly and that he will need to jump right in on Monday with a good attitude and work hard for Ken. Please pray that he will have relief from the pain in his shoulder and lower back/hip area. He said that the doctor said they were going to do an xray but I haven't gotten that word yet.
He seemed more interested with the tv tonight. He says things look better without the glasses right now. He definitely has some vision issues - you can pray about that as well. His mind is keen about the sports information!
It was nice to cuddle a little. I put my arms around him and he squeezed me to him and rubbed my back. That was nice. He also said he was sorry about what was going on and that it was difficult. I assured him that I was fine.
The highlight of his day was talking to "his girls" - Anna and Ella. He enjoyed talking to them on the phone. They are getting better talking on the phone to Poppop. He teared up when she told him that she loved him and that she was praying for him to get better. Aren't grandkids GRAND? He liked talking to you Kevin and Kimberly. He also enjoyed talking to Autumn (one of his Sunday School children) tonight - he said he missed teaching his kids at Sunday School. He asked if that was weird. I assured him that it isn't always true, but definitely not weird!
Enjoy the rest of your weekend,
Mr. Steve and company
