My dad’s speech pathologist came in this week and tested my dad’s swallowing. He decided that my dad’s swallow has gotten a lot better, and he is now aloud to eat anything he wants! My dad is really excited for this! He’s going out to lunch today downtown to have sushi, which he’s really looking forward to. He’s also really looking forward to being able to go to boogie’s burger and have a burger.
His physio is continuing to improve his arm movements. They are still testing out power wheelchairs for him, and have almost perfected it. He will most likely order a wheelchair soon. He is getting quite good at steering the chairs. They have him go in elevators and through obstacle courses. Hopefully next week they will be able to loan him one for the week, so he can get around all by himself.
