Tell me this...I want to know how my son, Zachary, rates. Bob recognizes faces, but does not remember names, only Zachary's. We were talking about smelly feet yesterday, and Bob asked if we were talking about Zachary. Then tonight, Zachary went with me to say good night. Bob said that Zachary looked different. When I asked Bob if remembered his name, he said, "It's Zachary." How does he rate?
Bob was awake most of the day. He had some good conversations with us. He gave me high-fives throughout the day. We worked a little on colors and counting. We took a nap together. While he sat in the recliner, we watched tv together; just like home. :-) I GOT HIM TO SING! It was a whisper, but he sang!
Did I mention, he got his trach completely taken out. Yep! No more extra airway.
Prayer from Pastor Daryl:
God of grace and glory, holy comforter, healing Spirit, we give you thanks for Bob’s continuing recovery and renewal. Continue to reach out and bring him healing through the hands of those who care for him. Radiate through his life with the light of your presence, that renewed health and strength may be his. Grant to him and those dear to him the continuing assurance of your steadfast love and mercy that they may know the peace that comes from you; through Christ our healer. Amen.
