News on Rehab

Sorry for the delay in blog posts. We just need everyone to be patient with us-- Reiterating the same information through phone calls, e-mail, etc. to several family members can be very tiring. However, we appreciate your concern, so we will try to stay more consistent with these blog entries.

Dad was moved to the rehabilitation center yesterday. This transition was a little tough on him, but the facility is very nice. The doctors and nurses are very warm and accomodating and even an improvement over the nurses in the regular ICU from what we have seen so far.

Dad is now on a feeding tube (which he will have for a few months until the next surgery to reattach his esophagus to his stomach.)

Other than that, he is in good spirits (talking, moving around a lot--walking the halls a little bit, etc.)

Please let us know of any questions or concerns you have so we can address them in this blog. Thank you.
