Day one of Rehab

As some of you know I have decided to seek rehab for this last exacerbation. I chose the Madonna Rehabilitation Hospital in Lincoln, NE.

Today was my first full day of Rehab. Although it started on a Sunday my morning was quite full of evals. I met with the Occupational therapist, Physical therapist, and Speech therapist.


Of course there wasn't anything wrong with my speech. You all know that I don't know when to stop talking. She also looked for swallowing, memory recall (short and long term), critical thinking, etc. Thank goodness it's all there because she said she would recommend no speech therapy which will give me more time with physical and occupational.


Now that I have met with everyone they will all get together and formulate a plan of attack and propose a release date. My personal goal is to meet or exceed that.


Let me just tell you though that the food here sucks!! But that will be good I guess because I love mashed potatoes but these are disgusting so I don't have to worry about the empty starches! My goal is to find some good sushi here in Lincoln and find a way to get it to me. It will help me get through the bad food. :)

I know several of you want to keep updated on my status and I figured this would be a good way to do that. I will do my very best to update this frequently on my progress, milestones, bad food stories, etc.....

I just want to thank everyone that has lent their support and kind words. It means more to me than you'll ever know!
