We are getiing acquainted with Timothy's care givers. Everything is going very well. Timothy has been up sitting in a wheel chair for 4 hours. All kinds of therapists have worked with him today so they can come up with goals which they will relay to us tomorrow. He has been very co-operative and seems to know everyone is trying to help him get better. The OT took him for a short tour of the building, past an aquarium, and around his part of the facility. She had him work at a machine that he had to turn the wheel using his good left hand. She had him wash his face and brush his teeth. He has tried to mouth words. Today or early tomorrow they will put in a smaller trach and cap it so he should be able to talk some.
Thanks, Bruce, Dana and Hayden for the flowers. They are lovely. I posted all cards and pictures on the wall.
At Madonna' website (www.Madonna.org) people can send messages (Madonna Mail icon)which will be printed out and delivered to Timothy. Messages must include patient's first and last name.
