Poopa Update!

After spending 3 weeks in the hospital.....Yesterday, they moved Poopa to Cypress, a Rehabilitaion Center, where they will work with him 3 hours EVERY DAY to get his strength back! Now he just has to perform! Jane is very pleased with this move. His pneumonia is gone and his back surgery is healing. He really does not have any 'medical condition' anymore to keep him in a hospital! YEAH!! We are all hoping that he will do what the therapist want him to do and get back to his 'dancing' self!

Thank you for your prayers and concern!

YEAH! I just finished talking to Jane. She said that Cypress is quiet, clean and seems to be an excellent environment for Poopa! YEAH! He ate ALL of his dinner tonight and she made him do some light exercising and he complied!! The major rehab will begin on Monday. Let's just hope he is a trooper and does what they ask him to do! They weighed him this morning and has lost a lot of weight, but he really needed to! Jane seemed to think that his spirits were high and he was a lot more optimistic!!

WHEW! We are breathing a sigh of relief here! You never know what tomorrow brings, but as of right now, things are improving and looking good!! Thank you God!

Poopa is still doing GREAT! He walked around even MORE yesterday! Brother David has been helping him a lot! Seems like the Cypress Rehab facility has been a good match and we are sooooo thankful!! There are therapists who he will listen to, and others he does not.....but overall, he has shown improvement and that is all we can ask for! We will give him hugs on Sunday and Monday next week....it'll be good to see his smiling face, for sure! From here on out, we'll pray that he continues on this road and is able to go home soon!
