Room with a view. We Moved!


Journal entry by Mindy McBride — 40 minutes ago
Good evening, #TeamAndy:

Today we moved into our new space at Bethesda Hospital (LTAC). When I returned to Andy this morning, he was talking to me (lips only) and I thought he said Bethesda, then I asked if the doctors were in, he told me yes. I asked if they talked about Bethesda, he said yes. I asked if he was sure, he replied YES! Well, I really thought he was confused and only said Bethesda because he knew I was going touring it. So I stepped out of his room and asked the ICU team if they had been in already. The team of doctors stated that they had been in and spoke with Andy. Well after a conversation with the team, Andy was telling me exactly what they said, he was transferring to Bethesda in the afternoon!

We are settling in and hopeful that the recovery will continue. Andy is determined and willing to do the work and making progress daily. Of course it is not at the rate he would like it AND we are going to celebrate the gains!

Grateful,

Mindy
