Following up on an old post I did in the serious topics forum, about my dad being in a motorbike accident.
He was making real fast progress and sort of impressing the doctors and surgeons along the way. He still cant walk or move to his wheel chair on his own yet, mainly that he cant put weight on his pelvic/hip bone (it was shattered but all put back together and healing too). There's still a lot he's dealing with but he is stabilizing and they cleared him to go home!!
He went home yesterday, on my wedding day!
:vanora_cry:
(I eloped so he didnt miss anything) I called him once I got home and turned the face time thing on. He looks like he lost a ton of weight from being in the hospital for a month and a half. But he looks good! He looks very healthy, just got casts on and tape over one of his glasses lens. His vision got messed up a bit where when he tries to look out of both eyes, he sees double. But if he covers one eye he's good. The tape blurs the one eye so he can see but still lets sunlight in a bit.
They think that may or may not fix itself, so they're watching it and doing exercises with him to help strengthen his eyes. He just noticed improvement that when he looks up, his eyes stop seeing double in that angle. So HOPING thats a sign it might clear up in time!
He's big happy though
and he's back to his normal sassy personality
so the brain damage really didn't get him

My job approved me time off to go visit them in october, so I'm excited
