27Jul
Carman is tired toady, slept til 11, then had a rough time at physio. It took 3 tries to get his 20 minutes done on the bike, O2 kept dropping on him. When he did his overhead stretches, his eyes disappeared up into his head each time he raised his arm, you could have knocked him over with a feather...until our PT came over to check on him and suggested he back off a bit - HA! Make that tired and argumentative! They finally negotiated a change in speed from 2.2 to 2.0 on the tread and he will switch back to the lower tension bike next visit. She may also make some changes to his oxygen for physio next visit.
Kept at it til he finished...so got to have his cafe-mocha-frappa-crappa treat! TGIF
| Kristy & Derek Treadmill Room |
While he finished up on the treadmill I popped downstairs to have a quick visit with our friend and recent transplantee, Jane, and her husband Al. She was tired today, a number of tests done yesterday, a new roommate arrived at 2:30 am and again more tests this morning so she didn’t get much sleep. They are hopeful she will get to go home next week! We are anxious to see her back in the Treadmill Room!
I returned to the Treadmill Room to find Carman done, absolutely bagged and...chatting with Shilpa. He may have been exhausted, but he can still pour it on for the young ladies!
We also got to bid Derek (Kristy’s fiance) farewell until next visit...he has been on vacation so was able to be here for 2 weeks! Back to work next week and then he’ll resume his just-for-the-weekend visits. He will be missed...
We headed home, Carman had his beverage treat, turned on the PGA tournament being held in Ancaster (near Hamilton) this weekend and promptly has fallen asleep in the chair! TGIF Baby!
