I was told today that he will be at the rehab center for 1 to 2 more weeks. They will re-evaluate his case next Tuesday or Wednesday. I spoke to the speech therapist and she said he is doing very well in their sessions. Much improvement everyday. She is also working with him on the memory stuff. She says he does really well with visual cues but not as well with verbal cues. However, she says as well as he is doing, she thinks he will come a long way in the coming week.
He is also seeing a medical psychologist. That is the person who is talking him through keeping his spirits up during the rehab process and also slowing talking to him about his drinking and what he plans to do when he leaves the center. His primary goal is to keep dads attitude positive. He says dad is a pleasure to work with and thinks he is doing great.
We will now wait and see for another week.
My brother Jeff is coming into town tomorrow. We are all very happy about that!
I will post again when something new happens.
