The routine is beginning to come together. We've worked out schedules for folks to stay at the hospital. Everyone is having to fold, drape and bend. For example, it looks like Lyn will initially take the early shift that starts at 5:30 or 6 in the morning. Those of you who know her understand the irony of that. Lyn's "musical girls" -- the team that she works with producing musicals in our area-- are scheduled to bring meals over the next couple of weeks, bless them. We're settlin' in.
Walter had the hiccups today, sometimes for extended periods. Mom and Dad were with him much of today. Jessica's parents, Brenda and Bobby, are here through tomorrow. They will spend the night at the hospital with Jessica tonight. Jessica finally took some time today to leave the hospital, go to her and Walter's townhouse and take care of things like washing some clothes. etc. She has to go back to work tomorrow, so the next stage of our routine will kick in then. Life continues.
Here's the address for cards (I recall that flowers are prohibited):
Walter Romine, Patient
Emory University Hospital
Neuro ICU
1364 Clifton Road
Atlanta, GA 30322
Remember Jessica's earlier suggestion about contributions to Shepherd's Center. You can check out the earlier post with the information on that.
Is Walter accepting visitors at this time? We would love to come and see him if he is up for it. We would also like to bring some food over to Jess and the family. Please let me know. rgrant75@yahoo.com Thank you for keeping us update.
