Cat scan showed that there is still something going on in Dave's lungs but it is improving. The physical therapists sat Dave up in the recliner chair several times. He was exhausted but it helped the pressure on his back.
I guess that we have turned the corner since Dave is grouchy ...he doesn't dare give the nurses any guff so it falls to me. I ended up taking more time off today to recharge my batteries and to give Dave more time to be independent.I did some errands, went to the bank to review accounts and pay bills, and since it was a spectacular day , I walked down to the beach in Grand Haven.

Wow, what a wonderful respite. I laid down in the warm sand,closed my eyes and just listened to the wind, waves and the occasional gull that flew by. Some sun worshippers were laying out on the beach in beach chairs, watching the kite surfers challenging the whitecaps. Sailboats were out on the water as were the salmon boats. I felt totally relaxed and calm, feeling deep down that everything was going to be better than alright.
