PT

    Yesterday we arrived to visit Dad and he had just left for physical therapy. A nice physical therapist (Kayla, who was at the meeting Tuesday) offered to show us the way, so we went on down. (Also, the cleaner was working on his room, so we couldn't exactly wait there anyway.) This place has much more primitive facilities compared to UniHealth. On the other hand, the staff actually seem to know what they're doing, which is rather the exception at the previous place. Melanie, Dad's physical therapist, was mainly working on his balance and coordination. It's too early to say how much it's helping, but it certainly seems like a much more intelligent approach. Also, the physical therapy room is so far from his own room that it's a pretty good workout just getting there.
    Also also, they did bring him back up to five days a week of physical therapy, leaving him with three of occupational therapy. Also also also he got his double portions. Yay!
