Well it has been 9 days since Dad got out of the hospital and I wish I could say he is doing fantastic, but he is still pretty much the same as a couple of weeks ago. Still very tired and feeling worn out all the time. His appetite is non-existent which isn't helping him regain his strength. He is staying with Mary Lynn for the time being. He hasn't had any appointments since being out of the hospital except a visit from a public health nurse. Starting this week he will be out of the house a lot more. Tomorrow morning he has a group rehab session at the Miller Center and he has the same group Thursday all day! It will be hard and exhausting for him I'm sure but it will be good to get some activity in and get moving. Next week he has a few doctors appointments with his family doc and his neurosurgeon as well as blood tests and another CT angio to check on the coils. They are hoping to see some more clotting going on. The last day or so he has been a little cloudy... not talking very much... and having some memory lapses. He hasn't been interested in leaving the house at all for a drive or just to sit out and get some fresh air. I hope that getting out a bit this week might at least lift his spirits or make him less bored. It would be nice for him to become more mobile in the next few weeks as April will be a big month!
