Thank you in advance for your support and contribution.
My T was out and about when I arrived at the VA today. The staff for his new room are treating him as though he is close to leaving, and they are preparing him to do just that.
His catheter was removed. So, now he has to retrain his brain to recognize the feeling of having to use the bathroom. He's had a catheter for seven months! I can only imagine how weak those muscles are since they haven't been used.
I almost cried today when Bob said he's getting close to coming home. I had a big lump in my throat. I'm such a sap.
Bob's sister send a letter in an envelope she made out of a page she took from a magazine. It had a picture of a herd of giraffes. In her letter, she asked what kind of animal was on the envelope. He couldn't come up with the name until I told Bob it started with a g. Then, he said giraffe right away. Continue sending trivia to me. I've run out of ideas.
Bob is adamant that he goes downtown everyday. He also asked me what street our house is on, because he'll stop by when he's out tomorrow. He told a nurse today that he went to the beach this morning without me. If we're going to a beach, let's make it somewhere warm, like Hawaii. :-)
"Heavenly Father, thank You for the strength to make it through any challenge I may face. I choose to put my trust in You. I declare that You are good and thank You for working behind the scenes on my behalf. In Jesus' Name. Amen."
