Regular Celebrity

Other than the "Heat" winning the NBA Championship last night ... (although he has decided that at least LaBron isn't a dirty player like "Meta World Peace") ... Gordo had a very good Thursday.
First words out of his mouth yesterday .. Pooker Annie ... this is a first class facilitiy! They've already put my teeth in! Well dad ... I'm am so glad you like it. 
I told the nurses what he had said and suggested that if they need some good PR ... go to room #306. They love him.
Then it was off to physical therapy. They came and took him away in his wheelchair and told me to take a break ... he'd be gone for a while. A break? What's a break? This IS a first class facility ... lol.
Dad does well in his therapy ... so with help of 4 aids ... here comes Gordo with a walker and a wheel chair behind him ... so he can rest as he makes his way down the hallway and back to his room.
There are old folks all over the place in wheel chairs ... when one 98 year old woman (who does not speak) looks up at dad ... as he's almost to his room ... and she starts to applaud. Gordo gets a huge smile on his face and tells her ... Thank you! He's a regular celebrity.
Needless to say ... he really is doing so much better and his amazing attitude plays the biggest role in his recovery.
God love him!
Have a great Friday!
