The last two days have probably been the most socially eventful for Tony that he's had in 10 weeks. For the most part, he's been stuck with me and the hospital staff for entertainment, and those awesome people who have made time to visit even when it's uncomfortable to do so. But he's been mostly lonely and bored silly. So thanks to the regular visitors, you know who you are.
Yesterday, Wendy Lew took Tony to pick out bathroom tile and groceries, and then they had tea at Starbucks. Who would have ever thought that something so simple would be an awesome day out? Well it was. Thanks Wendy!
Today, Rolly and Brandt took him to Loaded Joe's the local coffee shop, where Tony caught up with friends and shared his war wounds. Again, big day out!
These are the kind of days that most of us take for granted, but for Tony they were probably momentous.
Tomorrow we are onto Costco to load up on Gatorade, bottled water, protein drinks, paper towels and toilet paper, our most utilized home products these days. We are also going to visit our storage unit to see if we can dig out our ski stuff. The snow is hurling down and in case he's ever well enough, we need to be ready to go. Now that is a big day out!
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!
