In the words of The Supremes : Im comin out ,I want the world to know-got to let it show!!!!
My Dad is 'comin out' of Memorial Hermann Hospital today! His forty fifth day since the accident.
Everything came back on catscans and xrays as fine after his fall yesterday (and two subsequent falls today!) He tried to get out of the bed during the night while mom was sleeping so they had to put him in a special bed that kept him in it.
However, today, as we speak, he is being transferred to TIRR---- an amazing rehabilitation center - the fourth in the nation -
YAY! O man I was doing a dance in his room today and I am just so overjoyed that he is finally out of the hospital.
When the paramedics that were going to transfer him got there he looked at me and said "Its about time!!!"
Anyway - hope this brief news is a bit of a celebration for all that read it.
For the next three days or so they will be doing lots and lots of evaluations so they can come up with a plan for treatment and rehabilititation. So, we're not ALL better yet - but we're on the road to recovery!
AMEN ! God is GOOOOOD!!
Love you all...
Meg

Sounds like Mark is ready to go with or with out the help of anyone else. I know this must seem like eternity to him too. Hang in there, you are another step closer to being home. You are continuously in our thoughts and prayers. Sallie, Scott & Noah Keaton
Hurray!!! I sure am shocked that Mark has been falling out of bed and has not hurt himself -- but why should I be surprised -- he survived the 30 foot fall, so falling from the bed is just a "baby" fall in comparison!! (Certainly took them long enough to change him to a safer bed!!)
Megan, where is this rehab located? Is it close to Crosby? Please let us know the address so we can send cards, or would it be better to send them to the home address?
Love to all,
Cousin Janet
