Dad is still at Jefferson Neuroscience and probably will be for the weekend. Then possibly Monday they will move him to St. Agnes.
The problem with this decision is that that means another two to three days with no activity. The reason Dad is doing more poorly than expected is because he has not been given the opportunity to get up and move around.
The physical and occupational therapists only come during the week, so he's not been given any therapy yesterday or today because they thought he was moving hospitals; plus he won't be given any during Saturday and Sunday.
How is he supposed to get better if he's laying still for this long?
Pray that they do more intense movements/therapy; and get him up in a wheel chair today or tomorrow. Pray that St. Agnes will be the right move and things, like therapy and pneumonia, will improve.

Hang in there! I can't even imagine how frustrating things can get for you in the hospital. It is tough when our schedules and plans don't match those of others. I will be praying that you will have a peace of mind and the decisions will be made promptly and for the best of your dad.
We keep praying....
still praying...big hugs!
My family and I are praying for your dad's continued healing. Thanks for updating, Kim and Janice. It is amazing to read all about the improvements that he has made already.
