I spoke to Mom around 1 this afternoon and asked when Dad will be moved. She said she asked the nurse that same question and got a shrug and an answer that these things happen on "hospital time." Coincidentally, Mom is at the house waiting for Sears to deliver her new washing machine. They just called to tell her they're running late and aren't really sure when they'll be there - in other words, they're on "Sears" time!
Amie posted the following on our Facebook -Lyle Family- Group Page after seeing Dad in his new room:
**I just saw Papa and he's in an upright "bed"! He's having trouble holding his head up but that's to be expected. He was awake and alert, and able to respond in conversation. His nurse told me they were taking him for a "swallowing study" this afternoon, where they'll videotape and track his ability to swallow without getting anything in his lungs. "Rehab/PT" is listed on his daily "goal" whiteboard, which is great! He's doing well and from what I saw, in reasonably good spirits.**
Phase 2 has finally begun.
