Thread: Good thoughts for my dad, please HE'S HOME #76

    Talked with dad today, he seems to be in really good spirits!! He's getting skin graft surgery tomorrow, and then he should be able to go home in a few days after that. He's soooooo impatient about that right now!

    He's using a walker, very carefully. He tried crutches, but didn't have enough support with them, so glad he's using the walker, but hope he can keep hopping to keep weight off his foot! That's the tough part of this, no weight on the foot. Crutches would have been better for that, but oh well.

    Thanks again for all the thoughts and prayers, I know they are working wonders! Will update again when there is more news.

    This is such good news about your father, Jenn! His attitude is terrific, which is a strong point in his favor. He sounds ready and willing and able to take on whatever tasks life requires of him now.

    Continuing prayers and good wishes are being sent.

    I am so glad he is doing better, and I loved loved loved my knee walker when I broke my foot.
