Sunday, the day of our Lord and Savior, was a quiet yet small eventful one for David and I. First, I was taken to lunch by one of my coaches from work, Teresa, and had the best three hours talking with her. We got so many things off our chests about things that happen at work and the funny situations, we laughed, griped, and laughed some more.
When I finally got to the hospital to take care of David, he had not been up at all to walk. So, after he ate dinner I watched him get up and start to walk to down the hall on his walker. I followed behind with the wheelchair so that if he got tired he would have a place to sit. I didn't expect him to walk very far only about the 20 or 30 feet to the nurse's desk but he kept going. He walked all the way to the elevators which is about 100 feet. Quite an accomplishment for someone who just had the left hip replaced. He is still taking baby steps and it took quite a bit of time for this short walk but he did so very well, I was so proud of him and told him so. Then we took our little stroll around the hospital in the wheelchair which we have done everyday. We just go out the side entrance and around to the front and back in but at least it gets him outside for a that short ride.
Well, time for bed, I need to work in the morning then have to go to downtown Denver to take some documents to the State Personnel Board for the appeal on his termination. I hate driving downtown and then I hate parking down there, but we have to get this done. Then it will be back to the hospital to walk and push him for our daily routine and see if he is coming "home" on Tuesday. God Bless you all!
