Saturday evening

Well, Allan is exhausted from his move to rehab. I got him settled in, and then ran home to pack his bags and to bring the kids up to see him. We had a great visit! The kids were super excited to see their daddy, and Allan was rejuvinated by them. The Garzas came by for a visit, and brought Allan a little room decor ( a Saints gnome). It looks awesome in his room! We are very grateful to Shanna and Humberto for their kindness and generosity. They have brought us dinner, an awesome goody bag, and the Saints gnome to decorate a rather blah room. You guys are wonderful friends.
Thank you to the Clary family for bringing over delicious pulled pork sandwiches, salad and a giant sweet roll. After an exhausting day, it was really nice to come home to a yummy meal.
It was really difficult for me to leave Allan by himself tonight. This ordeal has really brought us closer together. I wish the circumstances were different, but I've really enjoyed the past couple of days with him. I realize that sounds crazy, but we've gotten to spend quality time together; something we haven't gotten to do in a long time. I know he's in good hands tonight, but I wish I could be with him.
I spoke to his patient care assistant tonight, and she gave me allan's schedule for tomorrow. He'll have OT and PT in the morning, and then again in the afternoon. I'm going to go up in the morning to bring him coffee, and to meet his therapists. Very excited for him to get going with his rehab.
Happy new year to you all. Please take time to reflect on your relationships with your loved ones. Do not take anything for granted. Let them know you love them, and cherish the time you have with them.
