Journal entry by Tracy Hooper

I know it's been awhile since an update. Not much to say. Bruce is still living at The Grand Victorian in Sycamore.  He goes to outpatient physical therapy and speech multiple times a week.  Physically he's doing really well. He is speaking in short sentences.  We had a nice Easter at my house with the four of us, Bruce and my parents. Today I got the Cadillac out since it was so nice and picked him up and took him for a ride before dropping him off at therapy.  Everyone at the Grand Vic kept asking if that was his car and he said "it used to be".  He sold us the car last summer before his stroke. I'm happy we have it and I can take him for rides in it!  Although, I think he was trying to tell me it was dusty!😄  I hadn't had time to wash it yet!  Feel free to visit. You may want to call ahead if you are coming from far away.  He has some kind of therapy or appointments most days and is gone throughout the day.  If you do visit, please sign in on his paper in his room. He usually can't tell us who's been to see him. So the list helps us figure out who he's talking about.
