My sister visited Dad. He is still wearing his sombrero. Maybe Doctor-Doctor gave it to him? Dad was in his wheel chair, in the activity room, getting ready to sing church songs. She took him outside on the patio to enjoy the strawberry shake she had bought him.
It was a beautiful, blustery day. My sister said it had rained last night and some this morning. The sky was an incredible blue with lots of fluffy clouds. Dad had shorts on and with the cold strawberry shake, he was chilled. Doctor-Doctor came out to say hi, and when she saw Dad she quickly ran back inside to get him a blanket.
Here is a picture of Dad and his Angel, Doctor-Doctor. Look how well Dad looks!! He is just flat out amazing how quickly he heals!!!
He had his sombrero and mask on, but it was OK to take it off once he was on the patio. Dad laughed heartily every time Doctor-Doctor rolled her "R's" and said, "Mariachi" to him.
She really brightens his day and it is so easy to see her genuine affection for him.
Dad began to spin a story of how he had played a round of golf with his "ladies" and how he blasted a ball with a 5 iron, getting a hole in one. He boasted how his score was so much better than everyone else. My sister listened intently, smiling with joy and so grateful he seems back to his happy self...
Dad heard everyone singing and wanted to return so he could join them in song. My sister wheeled him back in and kissed him good bye. She hugged him big enough for the entire family
and told him how much everyone loves him.

Your dad looks so good!! I can't believe how well he has healed!!
He looks great! He really did heal well. I'm so glad to see a picture of Doctor Doctor. Now I can put a face to her when you write about her.
Finally got a chance to catch up with you...
Glad your dad is feeling well now. Hope all you home plans work out the way you want.
Hi, Donna.
Your dad looks happy in the picture and the Sombrero is perfect. I imagine he had a lot of fun that day.
I answered your question about the strawberries on my post's comment page. Hope that helps.
What a great photo. He looks so good, and happy compared with the last photo. Love the sombrero, no wonder he wanted to sing!
