Therapy Graduation Day

Today dad was "graduated" from the out-patient rehab hospital. We had just integrated him back into their system and he went through all the evaluations as necessary to start back up. Apparently he scored very well on all of them and the therapists felt that his needs had been served and he can keep up his daily therapy activities himself at home. Frankly I was a little surprised that they wanted to cut him loose, but we can certainly add this to his list of accomplishments.

Still no word from Barrow's interdisciplinary tumor board as to what they found on his last CT. Supposedly, Dr. Short-on-Words Neurosurgeon was not at the meeting, so they were not yet able to review his case. (Don't worry about Dad people...take your own sweet time.....*sigh*) His next MRI is scheduled for Wednesday and will include an arterial scan. This will be immediately followed by an appointment with Dr. Neuro-Oncologist who will personally review his scans and hopefully report more good news.

In other real estate related news, mom and dad have had another offer bottom out on their house. As with the last, the potential buyers lost the sale of their own home, bringing everything to a halt. Fortunately, this happened early on this time. A final counter offer had yet to be executed. One of these days they'll get out here to Texas....
