Bill is now a long-term resident at the Medical Care Facility. He was discharged from re-hab because he wasn't making enough progress. He is not in what they call the restorative program. Not sure exacty what that encompasses, but they have walked him (with his walker) several times. He still doesn't want to do any socializing (or 'classes'), but once in a while they con him into one. Had his lift chair taken out there, so he is a bit more comfortable than sitting in the wheelchair all day. However, he has fallen twice trying to transfer from the wheelchair to his lift chair. He just won't push that little button to get someone to come help him. Of course, he never would ask me for help when he was home, so what can we expect? They have rearranged his room so every time they walk by they can look in and make sure he is okay. The workers are great and give us a little leeway (like me staying late to wath TV with him). Meals are (mostly) pretty good. I watch the menu and keep some meal tickets in my purse so if I'm there and it looks good I can stay. :-) Been dang cold the last couple weeks. Haven't walked Buster, or even made my rounds to visit my four-footed friends. Sure not gertting the exercise I did when I had my own dog. At least it is staying light longer. That's always a good sign.
