At Blythedale

It's been a whirlwind day!  At 11:00 am we learned that we would be leaving the hospital for Blythedale at 12:30.  We checked out of our Airbnb and I got on the ambulance with Byron and Bob got on the bus for Loch Sheldrake.  Only one parent at a time can stay at Blythedale so we will start longer shifts as of today.

Byron was so warmly welcomed at Blythedale by Maureen, the physical therapist, who remembered him fondly from his last time here.  Byron was examined, poked and prodded by every conceivable type of therapist, neurologist, nurse, teacher, social worker and on and on.  We are both exhausted but happy. We know we are in a good safe space to spend the next little while.


Byron is in a shared room, but luckily the fellow who has the part of the room with the window is leaving tomorrow so we will move to that side of the room.

The part of the room we will move into tomorrow

Byron will have a bit of school in the morning and then therapy in the afternoons.  He was not cleared to walk the halls on his own so he will move from place to place in a wheel chair for now.
