Jack has finally been released from the home nurse and therapist that he has had for several months. The leg wounds are healed and he has lots of exercises to do to build up his stamina to walk.
We are thrilled with the progress he is making and he seems to be stronger than before we came to Oklahoma. This is real progress.
We had a real date yesterday. Went out to lunch and spent an hour at the casino. We were surprised at the restaurant when they met us with the doors open and a big spacious place with a table where Jack could be comfortable. Crowded restaurants are a real NO NO.
We received the same VIP treatment at the Casino. Jack found a group of patrons at the Casino all in power and wheel chairs and they invited him to stay and have a drink with them. (smiles)
Jack was having chest pains this morning. I needed to go to the bank, so just gave him some tums and took him with me. The doctor's office was around the block from the bank and all we needed to do was check with him if the tums didn't work.
Having an enter van makes going somewhere much easier than getting into a car. Jack has a power chair and just buzzes right in and buckles up.
One thing about this "country" place is the power chair picks up lots of sand, dirt, gravel, on driveways and entries. I have now gone to carrying a tiny whisk broom and dust pan.
Peace.............

Sounds like a fun time. I know what you mean about crowded restaurants, after all we already have a piece of moving furniture. <grin>
