Tuesday, October 25

I cancelled Marsha for this week.  I hate the way this all works.  She doesn't work, she doesn't get paid but she can't work if Cowboy is not here.

Cowboy started his therapy yesterday and he did very well.  I think he wants to come home bad enough that he will work his heart out to get out of there.  He is eating more.  I think the food is better at this facility than at the hospital.  In the afternoon I took our dog up to see him.  Didn't work out terribly well.  He was brought down in a wheelchair and five minutes later he needed to go to the bathroom so they took him back up and then back down again.  10 minutes later he was getting too warm.  He was in a sweatsuit and it was about 85 degrees outside where we were sitting.  Don't think there will be any more doggie visits although I know he loved seeing her.

Today I went up and observed some of his therapy sessions to learn how that was going and what was involved.

This afternoon the band was over.  We are playing a "gig" Sunday night.  Will have to figure out what to do with Cowboy after I know whether he will be out of rehab at that point.

He is in pretty good spirits and is eating pretty well.  The people there are just wonderful.  Good situation.

I talked to my sister today and we decided to postpone my planned get away for next month.  She was going to come and look after him for about 4 days so I could "get out of town".  Maybe in a couple of months after things are back to our "new normal".
