This morning, after getting dressed during OT, John was moved up to the 9th floor. You can check it out here: http://www.ric.org/aboutus/mediacenter/press/2012/new-patient-recovery-unit/ He's settled in, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the set-up. There's a state-of-the-art ability lab, a family room where we can sit at tables with Nora to eat meals (and a refrigerator we can keep food in) -- and HOPE.
And I saw hope in action today:
John STOOD during PT this morning! Sara, his PT, helped him up from the bed, and then with her support, he stood. AND he was able to straighten up his back and hold himself with that wonderful ramrod posture he has! I will long treasure the look on his face when he realized he was standing.
