Jon indeed had a terrific time at the dance Saturday night. There were a lot of friends from work as well as the group he hung around with. Also, his gal, Nancy. As I predicted he did get out on the dance floor and "showed off his form." Much to his credit there were no reports of running into or over other people's toes. Not too sure how often they have power chairs on their dance floor and with the darkness and all I was somewhat concerned. Anyway, a great time was had by all.
Jon took another trip to the dentist today for a second cleaning and impressions for his bridge. Dr. Bricker is retiring and the bridgework will be done under the supervision of a new gal, young and seems quite accomplished. His next appointment is on April 8th, his sister, Jo Marie's birthday. He remarked that she's been gone 30 years and would have been 46 years old this year. We've often wondered how life with Jo Marie would have been.......
Talked with Jon's dad about his cousin Mark's progress. He managed to go 4 years without getting a pressure sore but has evidently developed a doozy. It is at a stage 4 like Jon's and is now going through some of the infections Jon had but with much higher fevers. We wish him the best in a steady recovery--there is no "speedy" recovery for bedsores! Jon's sore has progressed to the point that it is barely visible. Great progress!
We're all looking forward to warmer weather--Jon is looking forward to getting outdoors and down the road again. We'll try to steer him down a different, much safer, road next time!
