Well Good Morning Girls!

Its a bright and very sunny day here in Memphis. I had an important appointment with Dt. Stone this morning. Mom and I talked to my therapist about the whole matter, both the good and the not so good. She found humor in our stories and glad that we could laugh about it today.

Jackie, my occupational therapist has been around st. Francis a long time. I think she has been with the hospital quite a while now. She is very understanding and empathic. I see her twice a week. She asks a lot of guestions not just the usual types. She sometimes asks hard questions but not too hard. For example, she wants to find out how things are going for me personally, how I am doing so far. She is a bit old fashioned, you can tell by her questions. I do know that she has a daughter if I am not mistaken.

I don't have the dexterity in my right arm/ hand that I used to have. It is something I really need to work on. Dexterity, wow it is really weak.........It needs a lot of attention and soon. HELP.

And my walk "Gate" doesn't seem to be working like it should. I swear, it is off kilter some how or the other. What do you think!
I think it is a problem for me.........mmmmmmm. My entire walk, is giving me fits. Whatever will I do. I am starting to get freaked out.

By the way, did you know that I have fallen a few times? The last time it happened was Labor Day, I was walking and I fell down in the parking lot It was raining at that, and they made an announcement that and elderly gentleman had fallen and needed help. Wow! It was a real trip. Your ole Dad is falling apart. Ugh. I am quite sure it will get better, it will just take some time, I hope, I hope, I hope.

I can't believe this whole thing has happened to me. Wow.

All for now, please let me hear from you guys..............Your ole man needs to hear from you.

Love,

Dad.

By the way, doesn't it feel like fall is in the air? The temperature drops to around 55 degrees every night now. not bad considering what it was last week, huh?

Labor Day

Happy labor day! Hope that you all are having a great time on this Labor Day. First of all, please know that I love you all very much and miss you terribly. I love you all so very much and want only that which makes you happy. Please know that I love you all so very much!

On this labor day, I wish you only the best life has to offer. Please take everything and make it your own, especially that which makes you happy and fulfilled.

Love to each you on this glorious day!

Take care,

Love dad,

Good Morning Girls, Its Thursday morning and its another beautiful day in Memphis. The sun is shining brightly and everything is just fine.

How are you doing today? Fine I hope.

I thought I would start off by writing a l little description of the past several days.

First of all....Caro has been here since thursday helping, no, doing so many things to help Mom it is hard to imagine. She has been so helpful in so many ways. Not just cooking but cleaning the house and all the rest. We went to the wedding of the century......Tully had the most beautiful wedding. It is hard to describe.

Caro has been really has been helpful around 6562, we really enjoyed having he here. Thanks so much caro!

I spoke with Mia last night. She sounds so happy. She is just fine. Keep the good attitude up Mia. Thanks so much for calling Mia. I'll call again soon, probably tonight. Love you very much!

And last night I spoke with Anna. She is such a sweetheart. I admire here so deeply, especially for the hard work she has been doing studying for her tests. You will do just fine Anna. Just do your best.

Here is a little poem I wrote for me three wonderful daughters this morning.

God has blessed us with you.
May we be so happy with you
Keep us safe and and secure in your name.

Amen.

Love,

Dad
