Home is where the heart is

We finally go to the dr as Walter cannot shake this cold....we hope to be up and running like new in no time.


Week of 9/20
Monday - Walters hair stylist has been so kind to drive to our home to give Walter a haircut (his hair grows so fast that he needs it done every 4-6 weeks). I like it a little shorter than Walter does so we settle in the middle.
Tuesday - Nurse Angela comes to our home to give Walter pulmonary hygeine. This will help break up the mucous in his lungs. She adores him and says he is her favorite patient. Therapy today 2-4:30pm. Kevin cooks us a wonderful dinner of fried pork chops.
Wednesday - Nurse Angela comes in the morning with lots of cheer for her fave. Therapy today 2-4:30pm. Walter is so tired he won't speak, he will only nod his head yes or no. And of course eat dinner. We grill hamburgers with Mom, Jillian and Kevin.
Thursday - Nurse Angela raves on how well Walter is doing. She has only know him a couple days and sees his work ethic and how he wants to get better. She has been a great encourager to Walter. He hears it from his therapists, me and my mom every day but to hear it from a stranger is uplifting. Walter's family attends a training session at Pathways. Walter goes to Quitman with them for a few days to visit. He says he was extremely lazy, watched lots of football and saw friends like Ada Dodd, Spence Romine, Rich Lamon, Francis Williams, Dick Mitchell, Nancy and John Romine. When he returned home to Atlanta on Monday he said "I had a good time but it feels good to be home. There's no place like home."
