Happy 4th. We are disappointed that we are not able to have our annual BBQ tradition at Mom and Dads this year but grateful that Mom seems to continue to improve. Physically she seems to be growing stronger and certainly looks better as well. He mobility is also improving and motor skills too. We all really like her Physical Therapist Pam who has been really good with her. She tells us Mom has at very least another week here but she is encouraged by Mom's progress.
It's Friday morning as I write this and BC and I are outside Mom's room. At 7AM she is just now waking up. We were told she slept well last night. It was her third night staying by herself and she has been very accepting and encouraging Dad to go home and get some rest. The care on this floor continues to be good so we feel comfortable and secure.
Tomorrow Aunt Darlene and Uncle Al from Louisville fly in for a week. I know it's killing Mom not be able to to be home hosting them. We are all excited to see them and spend time no one more so than Dad. I am glad he has been able to go home and rest each night. He is doing well.
If anything good has come out of all of this it has been spending more time with my family. Randy and I send the morning together yesterday hanging a TV and had a lot of laughs. He spent last night with his weekly poker gang that he has postponed the past two weeks. I am grateful that we are all now able to start finding sometime to continue with out lives and divert our attention from the chaos. I've said it before but it's been awesome how we have all been able to support each other and I am really proud to be a member with full benefits of the Coble clan.
BC and I are going to spend some time this afternoon at Ken and Carries. We have not been able to spend as much time together as we usually do and have yet to determine if this is good or bad? (A little marital humor for you) We did manage to grab some dinner Wednesday night and I currently couldn't love her any more than I do. In the midst of all the chaos and uncertainty she remains the one thing I can be 100% certain about.
Shout out to Judy for helping out so much by keeping an eye on Mom and Dad's place and walking Kayla and to everyone for all the cards Flowers and posts. The picture above is of a beautiful bouquet from my Sisters Charlene, Jean and Faye which arrived yesterday and really cheered her up. Much love Sis's.
Have a wonderful 4th of July weekend. Will talk to you again soon.
