Niilo perky, sitting up most of day. 5-15-08

  Niilo appreciates the letters and phone calls and says he remembers all the folks, times, and issues mentioned in these letters; some we ‘kids’ don’t know, though most we do.

  Afternoons and evenings are typically higher energy times than mornings, but Dad has been glad to eat almost all meals at the table in his wheelchair and spends less time in bed and the recliner than last week.  He takes interest in the newspaper and more often speaks in full sentences; sometimes a paragraph at a time.  Every few days he walks a yard or two or three with the walker.

  Just now, listening to Myllarit via headphones, Dad tapped his toes to the music, a polka piece I think.
