John's New Bedroom - formerly known as the Dining Room

The new look to our dining room... shown at the right. John can't handle the many steps yet up to our bedroom, so we moved another bed downstairs for him to sleep in. Right now I am sleeping in the living room on the couch so I can get up to give him his meds and in case he needs me in the night. As you can see in the picture, "EVE" is also standing watch over him, and the two "ADAM'S" are on the buffet (not shown) watching over him as well...kinda like angels...heh heh.

The first day John was home (Monday) was pretty overwhelming...but yesterday was better, and today better yet.. he still eats very little, although today he ate more than he had in a week in just three meals...things are looking up that way. He still has some problems with his left leg, or left side moving slowly and hurting more, it may be an injury from the fall, he wants to wait and ask about it, if it's still bothering him when we go to get his staples out of his back on Monday.
John was also able to do a little book work this morning before the morphine, Valium and oxycodone kicked in... some jobs lined up for the fall ...now if the jobs for the rest of the summer would work out, it would be a lot less stress for him too.

We are SOOOOO looking forward to this time going by speedily, and wish it were 3 weeks from now NOW! *L*

We are very thankful for all the well wishes and prayers...please keep it up!
