    Oh geeezzzz I'm sore, my first real day of OT and PT since July.  It was interesting never have been here before they operate slightly different than some others, they have roughly 9  regular therapists and you may have a main two but occasionally work with others.  Looks like 8 women and I saw 1 man.  I've met 4 of the women so far one is uhhhh unique a tall thin former women's basketball and volleyball player Erin she's in charge of my OT and conditioning and she's 6' 1" and cute.  Whoa.

    Well back at it tomorrow and they work you 6 days a week here off Sunday.....hey football time!

    Time for my milk and cookies snack soon. Later.  🙂

  • THURSDAY NOVEMBER 21, 2019,. I'm getting everything ready here to blow out of this culinary wasteland real soon scheduled for Wednesday November 27 one day before Thanksgiving Day.

    WORST food I've ever had anywhere and I have been in 5 different hospitals and now this is 6 different rehab places.

    Details to follow -but- in my mind I am already gone.....baby!   😆

  • This is the email that I sent to my friends and family.......

    Hi everyone,

     
    I hope that this is the last hospital/rehab update of 2019 and 2020 and beyond.
     
    Just wanted to let you know that I am going to get out of Beeghly Oakes rehab where I am now and go home on November 27 the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.
     
    This is just a target date and I will still have to be strong and steady enough to do it but that is my plan.  Barring any unforeseen circumstances this looks like a firm discharge date.
     
    My main problem is still my left shoulder which is bad (needs replaced) and somewhat my chronic psyatic left hip still hurts plus they found out in my August 20 MRI I do have disc issues between C3 and C4 and C5 but we're not addressing those issues now.  This is recovering from my April 3 and September 16 surgeries and just getting me home for some much needed R&R I basically have been in the hospital and rehab since April 2nd.  No other surgeries are planned at this time at all !
     
    So I'm going to work as hard as I can and hope for the best.  I will have many follow up doctor and pain management visits to do later.
     
    Nancy has gotten the house all fixed up painting the whole downstairs in 2018 and the whole upstairs in 2019 along with crown moulding throughout, new ceiling fans and lights, and new blinds on 10 windows.  All that is left is to redo the upstairs bathroom and new garage doors and our 34 year house will be nicely overhauled.
     
    So I'm ready for a long winter's rest and recuperation at home soon.  Michael and Nancy

    We did.  Best sage dressing that I've ever had!  Wife made it with Hawaiian bread and sweet onions and our home grown herbs.

    My mom and grandma made the best.....it was better.  Plus pan gravy, mashed potatoes and the rest, oh yeah!

    We had the turkey dinner at Disney Resorts All -Star Movies facility. Actually it was not bad at all plus no prep or cleanup to feed us, kids and grandkids. We had a great time all week at Disneyworld/Universal celebrating our upcoming 50th. As I said on Gips America thread, don't ever ride the Epcot Space training Mars adventure. Way too many sustained g forces higher than a real rocket ride and with no g-suits.
