Our dad has now been in the hospital for exactly 2 weeks. A lot has happened during his time here. It has been quite a roller coaster and we know it will continue to be a journey for quite some time. He is pretty much the same as he was yesterday. Even though he is talking a little bit, he is still very tired. He needs a lot of rest so that his body can continue to heal. The physical therapists came to check in on him today as well as the speech therapists. He definitely has his work cut out for him, but he knows he has to remain strong and be willing to put in the work. We understand it is just easier said than done sometimes. He has a strong support network and lots of positive people cheering him on, which helps a lot.
