Another Friday at the Brigham March 29th

Surprise...... Still here, and so my breakfast routine continues.

We had thought a bed was opening up at Spaulding, but unfortunately it did not and Greg here still here at the Brigham. 

Last night Jehan, Natalie, and Sean paid a visit.  For a good part of the evening Greg was really, really good.  Dr. Du came in and was very impressed with all of his answers to her typical questions, " your name, where are you, what year is it".  I think he was really showing off!!  He spent part of yesterday actually working on word find puzzles,  and Jill reports he was actually pretty good at it.....such progress!  But then his confusion comes back. 

He is really beginning to recognize the fact that he hasn't seen the boys, Jake and Gavin, for some time.  He talked about missing them last night.  Things are slowly coming back and this gives us reason for continued optimism, but it is also hard to see him feel this sadness.

Lets hope for the move today.  My fear is that if not today, the holiday weekend will impact any potential change of venue and make the transition a bit less effective. I'm sure the activity at Spaulding would be different over Easter weekend.  Anybody up for an Easter egg hunt at the Spaulding ?  Just kidding!

I am really looking forward to Maggie's birthday party tomorrow.  Can't believe she is going to be three.   It will be so much fun to have all the grandchildren together.  It has been so long given the circumstances and I miss seeing them.  

I will let you know how the week ends.

Have a Happy Easter!!

Mike
