update on dad

Talked to mom today and she said dad is doing extremely well. The biggest drug he has taken is an ibuprofen! Told you the man was tough! She said he tells her his shoulder just aches.

Mom said he doesn't have a shirt big enough to go around the sling and himself and she told him she would go to Wal-Mart and buy him some and he told her NO. So I'm sending 3 shirts to him from my hubby so he can at least cover up when he can go out in 2wks.

He was looking in the mirror last night and said, "Hey, my shoulders are even again." YEAH!

So mom said she is extremely happy with everything.

The other thing is the head of the hospital DID call her back yesterday and talked with my mom and she is going to have another person call and talk with mom and my dad about the whole situation. I think a certain Dr. Kenny is going to be in trouble! He better learn some bedside manners!

The other thing my mother told the head of the hospital is that there really should be some type of program or classes offered to hospital staff to learn how to "deal" with post traumatic stress syndrome patients! I think this would be a wonderful idea and I told my mother her and dad should really think about starting up such a program. I'm sure my father is not the only patient like that.

Anyway, I'm happy with the report I got and glad dad is doing so well. :)

Happy day!
