Day 53 hour 9

Tony had a very busy day today. They took his feeding tube out this morning followed by an ultrasound followed by physical therapy and a visit from a co worker. Followed by speech therapy , then his occupational therapist did some tests to see how much progress he had made from the beginning of his stay in Rancho until today. He has shown a lot of improvement. We then played a board game that should help him strengthen his short term memory. He seems to have retained his long term memories quite well.
After the board game we went outside for about an hour and had chicken pot pies from KFC. We came back to his room watched part of a movie and then another co worker came by for a visit. Tony really appreciated his co workers taking the time to come and see him.
We then finished our movie and Tony started to dose off.

tomorrow is also a very big day. We get to bring him home! Yea!!!! He has really been looking forward to this. Hopefully before we leave we will get an appointment with the out patient program to figure out how much more therapy he will need before he can go back to work or drive again.
