There's bad news and good news this week. The bad news is that the doctor put in the button in place of the trach on Monday. Dad did well for a few days, but he had some issues on Friday night and the doctor decided to put the trach back in on Saturday. The good news is that his stay in this facility was extended and all three of his children, Cathleen, Christine, and Kevin, were able to visit together this weekend. Classmate Barbara Westlake also spent the afternoon with him so Pam could check out other options for his next move. Other visitors included Jack and Nona Nash as well as his brother, Paul, and Ed Conley. We are hopeful that this was just a bump in the road, and that Dad will continue the progress he has been making at this facility for the past two weeks.
Safe travels to all of you who are on the road this week.
All the best,
The Cahill Family
We continue to cheer for Denny's recovery!!! No doubt, having all of the children and grandchildren with him have lifted his spirits!
