TGIF

Tim has had another good day with lots of activity. He's got a walker with front wheels that makes walking the hall much easier. He's not going to be doing wheelies but it does help with him moving from place to place. He's had visitors which have brought the sunshine on a rainy afternoon. The wound care specialist has been in and redressed his foot and she is very optimistic with the progress in two days. The doctor came to take a look and he, too, was pleased with what they were seeing. It's vaced until Monday when they will look at it again! Tim's here through the weekend but there's talk and preparation being made for him to go home maybe Tuesday with home health care.

Now my job is to get the house ready for Tim to come home. The den has already become the bedroom and the den furniture was moved to the living room. I need to make a trip to the grocery store for food that's low sodium and dietetic - what fun! I'm feeling overwhelmed with all we've got to know - food, meds, insulin, blood pressure and weight. here we go!
