An update

Mom was moved into a rehabilitation facility on June 12, 2019. She was a little down about suffering from a stroke. Her mood has improved. She looks good and looks healthy. I have been visiting just about every day. It is tiring working at my job then driving into Edmonton to visit. I am happy that friends and relatives have been visiting. The television in her room does not work. I have been told they are slowly getting replaced. You cannot get a phone in the room. If you want to use a phone you have to go down the hall. I think that is a good idea, it gets you moving and motivated to do things like make a phone call.

The staff at the facility are great. Everyone is very nice and work hard to help you recover. Mom has therapy twice a day. They started her walking with a walker yesterday. Other times she is in a wheelchair and building up strength wheeling herself around her unit.

She complains about the hospital food. Personally I do not think it is all that bad. Her roommate seems to love it. It is designed for healthy eating, not for taste. I tried it, it is not bad. I offered to smuggle something in for her, so far she has declined. I told her that if she does not like it then consider it an incentive to get better and get back to her own home. Overall I think things are looking up.

  4. It is really hard to stay positive when your entire world has been turned upside down. That you can stay positive even when she can't, is a huge help to her. Prayers are ongoing for you both.

  5. Great news. If the attitude can stay up the body will follow along just fine.
