I am feeling a lot better this morning. There seems to be a light at the end of the tunnel. My dad is receiving much better care where he is now. The young lass taking care of him is much better than the lot he had before. His backbrace has arrived, but has not been fitted because he is to remain immobile for a while longer. He is still in incredible pain and is not completely out of the woods, BUT the good news is that his head wound seems to be healing really well. He did not get an infection in the brain, which was a huge worry.Because he is able to elevate the bed to the degree that he feels is comfortable, he is not just confined to lying on his right side. Last night he was able to lift his head up enough to eat - mostly unaided. He still has a long way to go, but it appears as if his life is no longer under threat. Thank you all for your support and prayers. Please continue to pray for further recovery. Thank you all from my whole family.
