Jim has been home for nearly a week now and he continues to improve! He is super talkative, and his sense of humor is Classic Jim. We have been keeping his dogs at Jim’s nephew’s house until we are sure Jim’s balance is ok. One of his dogs came home today, and the reunion went very well, so we will be bringing the other dog home soon. While his balance is great, he still has a lot of confusion, need for redirecting, and patience. His days are busy with visits from nurses and therapists. The doctors were adamant that visitors be limited. This is to limit stimulation to his brain, and it is absolutely necessary for his recovery. He really wants to see everyone, but that just isn’t a possibility right now. We ask that everyone be patient and respectful of the family’s and Jim’s needs. Not only do we need to limit the number of people in the house with respect to Jim’s brain recovery, but also regarding COVID exposure. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
