Day at the park

Today, Haydee was here for Dad, and Laura was here for Dylan. The four of them went to a park in San Pedro (about 20 mins from my house) that is by the marina...nice flat area with lots of benches and walking paths Gorgeous day here. They recently returned and reported how much Dad seemed to enjoy the location. I noticed it earlier today, and they also mentioned that Dad was really talking very coherently. Apparently he was very talkative during their visit up until he woke from a brief nap he took while there.

Physically it seems that Dad has been putting up more of a fuss lately about moving. Not all the time, but at certain times he seems to get situated and doesn't want to get up. He continues to do a lot of scratching of his scalp and shoulder areas. He's also gotten into this mode of "screeching" or making shivering-type sounds. As I mentioned before, it seems like it started during the hemorrhoid episode (in reaction to the suppositories).

Justine asked, and i will follow through on asking Lois to start blogging on Dad's day... particularly now that he's got his computer and I have it set up on his desk in the bedroom (though it is a very small screen and keyboard.)

Dad is scheduled to go to Ken's house this coming Thursday thru Sunday.
