THE DOWNSIDES TO THE UPSIDES OF A STROKE

As many of you know, Geoff caught a nasty little infection from which he is still recovering. Friday (Sept. 25th) he came down with the chills and by Saturday was struggling to make transfers even with Dennis and Yvonne's help.

Once checked into the emergency room, the doctors made a rapid diagnosis and started treatment immediately. Of course, that still meant a week of cold sweats and hospital food, but on Thursday (Oct. 1st) he transferred down to rehab. A decade later, many of his previous nurses and therapists are still at St. Charles and this adventure brought many of them back into Geoff's room (a blog with some of these stories sure to come later).

Anyway, I am told that he hopes to return home this coming Thursday (Oct. 8th) so go visit him now for the gown pics!

Just kidding... clearly he is back in real clothes.
