Home sweet home! The Final Post


My apologies for not updating the blog in the last few days…  This will be the final post in this blog and I’m so relieved at the note we’re leaving on!  Richard came home from the hospital last Tuesday evening (August 13th) to the surprise and delight of ALL of us!  I’m sure part of it is that there’s an amazing spirit in my Old Man full of fight and tenacity that’s helped him through; however, I KNOW that the faith, prayers, and fasting of family and friends more than tipped the balances.  It’s truly a miracle that Dad has come through this the way he has and in the condition he has!

 

            Mom and the family still have a few hills to climb with dad needing physical therapy to strengthen his left side.  Dad will have some mild short term memory issues for a while as well as a bit of flat affect personality.  Flat or Blunt Affect is a condition where the individual isn’t as emotionally expressive and doesn’t initiate conversation as readily.  All of these are very temporary and are vanishing as the days go by. 

 

            Please feel free to call or come by the home and visit for the latest and greatest news!  Your company would be most welcome!
