This is the first weekend I've been home and away from my t (I call Bob, t). I feel more at ease leaving for a few days, since he was bright-eyed and bushy tailed last night; but it's going to be the longest weekend ever.
I'm in the process getting him transferred to the VA in Roseburg for his extended rehab that he will need when he leaves OHSU. Anyone know any tricks or have clout to make the process easier? Most of you know he was a cardiac ICU nurse in the Army during the Vietnam War. He was stationed stateside. Currently, he rides with the Patriot Guard. After each ride, he comes home so emotional. That's one thing I love about t; he has such a sensitive side that he makes me cry too.
Your prayers and thoughts have helped tremendously. Please keep them coming. I'm reading your emails to Bob. They can be sent to jiachini@msn.com

Hi Jan, What about the guys that he rides with in the Patriot Guard? Can you contact someone there that knows an HR or someone of the like that might help? Just a thought! Glad you have this situation to figure out .. it means "mr t" is getting better! Brenda
it's sad that it is such a process to get someone in the va. Happy to hear that he is showing progress and has someone who will help him through the tough times.
