Dad’s physical therapist came today.  Given that I have not seen my father standing on his own in months and months, today was a wonderful day.

Jason checking Dad’s vitals.  Everything looked good!

Jason explaining all the benefits of working his legs to Dad, and priming the pump, so to speak.

He’s up!  Basically Dad did this on his own steam, with minimal support from Jason. Mom and I each took turns assisting Dad to make sure we did it right.

Jason says Dad needs to get up every half hour, and I have designated myself the job of taskmaster . . . at least until I leave on Tuesday.
