Journal entry by Jeff Coombs

Multple visits and phone calls with Dad. He seems to be fitting in at Aicota, being very social. Funny moment when the first night there, he ordered tv for his room and it was installed before business hours the next day! None of us ordered it for Dad, so he had to have ordered it. He doesn't remember. He likes to sit out by the south nurses station and keep on eye on things. 

Some moments I wonder if he really needs to be here and then the moments come when I think "yep, this is why you are here." I am going to try giving Dad a cell phone in the coming days. I will post on here when that happens. If that does not work, I will be ordering him a land line so he can talk as long as you or he like.

For now, all of us are enjoying our visits with Dad. I stop in a couple times a day to see him. Friday morning, he was still sleeping in his bed at 7:10 am. I didn't wake him. I set his pants on his walker and walked out. I went back last night and visited, telling him I was there at 7:10 am and he was sleeping. He said he must have went back to bed. I am not sure about that but it doesn't matter. I was glad to see him sleeping.
