Introducing ~
"Mr. Bear" ...
My Walking Coach and Traveling Companion >>>
Mr. Bear arrived with a Volunteer just before lunch on Tuesday ...
as I was *waiting* for the Doc to come and change my "orders" from
"confined to bed"to "allowed to WALK".
The Volunteer only said I'd "Like It" and left with a Bigon his face ...
"IT" was "Mr. Bear" - a Bear-Gram from The Vermont Teddy Bear Company!
He carried a Card that said:
Get Better Soon!With big hugs & prayers from
Paul, Karen, Miss Hoppy
and All of Pet Talk
He's wearing a Checkered, Piped Bathrobe with a Sash and pocket,
removable Blue Slippers - with EYES,
has a Hankie on his right paw,
and a Chawklit Bar tied to his left paw, and the Bear Tail Story Book.
He's *NEAT* - THANKS, Gang!!!
We shared Lunch and curled up on the bed together to *wait* for the Doc.
She never came, but two "Interns" arrived and said I was allowed to"walk" ...
Mr. Bear said he wanted to come along ...
so we bagan an afternoon of Hiking in the Halls.
After a couple "laps" up & down "MY" hall -- I asked the girl watching the
"radio pack telemetry monitors" if she could "see me" in the ICU ward?
She said she "thought she could" ... so Mr. Bear and I haeded off to visit with
Nurse Cindy (Gud Buddie & wifey of a Fire Guy) in my old ICU ward.
The ICU Gang had a good *laff* at our expense ...
Cindy said I looked like a *Dork* in my drafty "dressing" gown - WHY didn't I get a
pair of PANTS on?
Bear and I left to requisition a pair of scrub bottoms!
