Tuesday, May 26th

Sorry, no time to blog yesterday!

Mom and I went to visit dad in the afternoon. He said that he had therapy 3 times, and that they said he's doing well. He thinks he might come home this weekend.

A Labradoodle named Barley came to visit before we got there. Dad liked it a lot! As a matter of fact, it's the only thing he will participate in.

When we go there, he was sitting in the hallway, so I got him a wheel chair, and we went to the entertainment room to watch T.V. A lady came to tell him about the activities and see what his interests are, and he said "no" to everything. She told him that he better be careful because the women have their eyes on him because he's the youngest one there! LOL They are Alzheimer's patients.

No Wonder It's So Weird
The lady told us that the facility is for full-time residents, and they only have a few rehabilitation patients (one is dad). That's why all of those people sit sleeping in their wheelchairs in the foyer. It's sad, but it creeps me out.

Casino
Since dad will be coming home soon, I took mom to Elgin to the casino again. They had an open upstairs balcony that circles the whole place, and I asked if I could walk up there. It's like a track. So, while mom gambled, I worked out! I walked around it 20 times!

Dinner
Dad said he didn't eat dinner, but he had corned beef for lunch. I think he's eating too many candy bars!
