Transferred to Kernan Rehab. Hospital

What a great day!!!! The cat scan was almost normal and Mike will not need a shunt. There is no blood seen, only a little bit of extra fluid that they said should be reabsorbed over time. They did say he would continue to get cat scans about every 2 to 3 weeks to keep a check on everything. Mike also passed the chew and swallowing test at the hospital and will be scheduled for a barium swallowing test soon. They will watch the barium by xray to make sure no fluid goes into his lungs. Soon he will be able to eat real food. Now the real big news. They transferred him to Kernan Rehabilitation Hospital this evening. Nancy and I left first to find a new hotel to stay close by and my mother rode with Mike in the ambulance. We found a hotel and Mike is now settled in. It is so nice and they start working with him tomorrow morning. Speech, physical, and occupational therapy. The doctors say Mike is way ahead of schedule and doing exceptionally well. Now his children, all three can come and see him. They have not been able to since the accident. The visiting hours are Monday through Friday 5 pm till 8:30 pm. Saturday, Sunday, and holidays 12 noon till 8:30 pm. The address is 2200 Kernan Drive in Baltimore. For those friends who have been waiting, the time to visit is now! The power of prayer is unbelievable. They sedated Mike for the ride there so he was out of it most of the evening. But when he awoke Joel Osteen was on his TV. He said, "Joel Osteen". We asked him if he wanted to watch and he said yes. Then when Joel went off he said, "Where's Joel"? We told him he went off but would be back on tomorrow night. He kept saying he wanted Joel Osteen, so my sister put on a CD she had of Joel Osteen's book, Living Your Best Life Now, and put the headphones in his ears. He went sound asleep after a few minutes. Good night everyone and thank you for everything again and again. Will write more tomorrow.
