Day 239, Week 34 (Saturday)
Hello,
Robbie
finally came home Wednesday from his almost 8 month stay in the
area hospitals. It is very good to have him home. It has been a
really hectic two weeks for us all to try and get everything
here ready for him. We now have a hospital room in the house
complete with all the equipment needed for his condition. We are
starting to get into a routine to care for him and he looks very
comfortable at home. Marleen has learned to care for his wounds
on his leg and stump and has been doing a real good job. The
wounds are healing great. We also have a home nurse that has
been coming by every morning to check on Robbie and to help
train Marleen. Now we put Robbie in his wheel chair and go for
walks around the block. We plan on increasing the distance as
time goes by. Robbie is now resting very comfortably in his bed.
Please
feel free to drop by and visit with Robbie and us anytime
between noon and 8pm. We enjoy the company and sure Robbie will
too.
Again our address is:
2200
Tree House Lane
Plano,
Tx 75023
972-596-9491
Love to You All,
John,
Marleen and Karen Grinnell
