Been a while since I updated ya’ll, so I figured I should do that.
My Dad is doing great - his doctor said he’s finally infection free (only as of last week though), and though he’s still tired sometimes he’s more energetic than he has been in weeks. However, the department of licensing is making him get a note from his eye doctor to say he can see well enough to drive - and if he can’t get that, I’ll have to become his and Mom’s chauffeur full time.
Speaking of Mom, she’s healing rapidly! She’s still at the physical therapy recovery place, and for a while it seemed like she wasn’t improving. Her taste buds didn’t like any food, and she couldn’t do much on her own. Now, she’s enjoying all sorts of food, though still not everything, and she’s walking enough that they’ve even given her a better wheelchair to get herself around. She went from being able to walk 30 feet in a day, then to 60, and today it was closer to 130 feet - and this was all this week.
She never needed to get sent to the hospital out of town because her gall bladder and infection are improving, too. Overall, things are definitely beginning to look up.
While things are still not completely great, they’re getting better, and so is my mindset. I’m still scattered and completely fixated on reading this book series and playing my just-for-fun BACC, but I think I’ll be able to return to posting again pretty soon.
