A really good visit with a patient at rehab hospital today.
Spent the day ms usnret88 at rehab hospital where she is undergoing treatment for injuries from her motor scooter accident, and while she was napping I chatted with another patient who is going home tomorrow. He said some interestingly liberal stuff, much like what I read here on a regular basis, and I asked him if he was registered on DU. No, he is not, but lurks regularly, and recommended common dreams to me. We then talked bad about the BFEE, how so many of the good people from our youth have been murdered - JFK, MLKjr, John Lennon, etc. It was a good 2 hour chat, something I really needed and enjoyed.

Ms usnret88 had a good day, and I can see improvements daily. Physical therapists were told by case manager they might as well teach me stuff since I'm there all day every day, so I go to all her sessions.

2. Glad to hear the Mrs. had a good day.
I'm sure there will be many more to come. It's a good thing that you're sitting in on the sessions. Keep after her to do her exercises when she gets home. It's important to keep it going every day. Keep well. :hug:
