Returning Home

Dear Friends of Denny,

Dad finally made it home on Thursday. He is feeling much happier as he really dislikes hospitals and gets fairly bored. As usually, the hospital stay has meant a bit of a setback in his physical therapy and strength.This is a little disappointing as before that he was making good progress, as you can see from the picture in the post below, which was taken before the hospital stay. But, now that he is home, we hope that he will quickly regain his strength and get back on track.

Here's a picture I forgot to post. For Valentine's Day Mom surprised Dad with a singing telegraph from Arcata High students. How sweet!

Small Setback

Dear Friends of Denny,

Well, I think I jinxed it last post. Dad got an infection and went back to the hospital. Unfortuantely, he has to stay in while receiving his anitbiotic treatment, so he'll be there for a few more days. He's doing pretty well, but he is bored. Because St. Joe's was full, they sent him down to Fortuna. It is a very nice hospital and Mom and Dad have been very impressed with the great care he's received. We know you are keeping him in your thoughts and we appreciate it.

Happy Valentine's Day!

 

Dear Friends of Denny - 

Here's wishing you a very happy St. Valentine's Day! 

Dad's been having a great month. He's been on a number of outings, including Friday lunch with his buddies, HSU games, and walks around town. Because the new year has rolled around, he's been able to start his physical therapy again.  He's been working on strengthening his  leg muscles as well as his arms. As you can see below, he's doing a great job. 

He is feeling very well and would be happy to have visitors if you are out Bayside way.

 

Cheering for HSU!
