This is a picture of Dad/Steve/Granddaddy in the hospital bed. Thankfully, he is doing much better now. He still gets tired pretty easily, but he is doing his exercises and enoying his new leather recliner.
We are so grateful that he is able to walk and that his injuries were not more extensive. Now a retired motorcyclist, he is planning to become an active fisherman and travel around the country in a convertible when he feels the need to roam.
The recovery will be continuous for the next couple of months. He has at least three more weeks in the sling with little or no movement allowed in the right shoulder. His broken ribs are still painful, especially when coughing or sneezing. Laughing can be particularly bad, but the pain tends to quickly diffuse the desire to laugh.
Christmas decorations at their house may be a little more subdued because it is physically a laborious undertaking to deck the halls for the season. Obviously, this is a concern to no one as his presence is our biggest and best present.
Thanks everyone for all your prayers and well wishes. We feel blessed to have so many caring people in our lives!
