T sat on the floor...

Thank you in advance for your support and contribution.

T decided that it was time to take a stab at walking without any assistance of any kind. Needless-to-say, it didn't work. He fell to the floor. The nursing staff was concerned that the alarms didn't sound off when he stood up. I'll give you one guess as to what happened....Give up? Bob disabled the alarms before he got out of bed so they wouldn't go off! He has been saying for a long time that he can walk, and he is determined to prove it. The nurses had to hide the alarms so he couldn't disarm them again.

He didn't hurt himself. He thought the whole thing was rather funny. He giggled every time he told the story. :) Bob told me his fall was a graceful fall. He didn't get hurt.

Now, we need to get his thinking in the right location and in the here and now. That will come with time.

A PRAYER FOR TODAY
"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."
