Bob Update

 

The look of pain on Bobs face is not from physical pain, but the fact he wants to be home. Yesterday he spent a total of 5 hours in the wheel chair, not all at one time.

He is in bed and just in last two days able to stay in chair. He is unable to walk, but physical therapy is teaching him to stand on one leg.

He can't come home until he is able to transfer himself from wheel chair to bed/bathroom. I am unable to take care of him as he is now.


Yesterday was day 11, and the swelling in the foot went down almost to normal. He will have x-ray of ankle next Thursday.
 I miss you all and am unable to do anything but care for Beau and Bob in two different places plus all the things that run a home must be done. I can't use laptop in his room because it upsets him, as it has since his memory problems the past year.
Will try to update at least once a day. I miss you all and thank you for your prayers and know that I am praying for those of you that have spouses with health issues. My praying is keeping me at peace for sleeping at night and I am getting the sleep I need

4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus..

Hi Sandra :)
Good to hear from you and know that the swelling in Bob's ankle has gone down. I know it must be frustrating for Bob to be either in bed or in a wheel chair, but his ankle is getting better, and these breaks can't be rushed. Blessings to you both.
Well wishes,
Sonjia

Thank you for the update. I'm happy you're getting the rest you need and I know you miss Bob. He's being taken care of very well. That's a good thing too. He knows what he has to do to come home.

Have a fabulous day and rest of the week. Big healing hug to you and Bob and lots of scritches to Beau. ♥
