Gpa Update For All (but mostly for stanska)

This is from an email written by my Uncle Peter:

I was in to see Dad and Mom tonight. To look at Dad now, especially with
>his long pants on covering the brace, you would not know there is a thing
>wrong with him. He looks better every time I see him. His eye has healed
>and he can put his left hand up to his mouth. (Two fisted drinker now!!)
>He can steady himself with enough weight on his broken leg that he can move
>from one chair to another as long as they are side by side. And his teeth
>are OK. Finally.


This is from an email written by my Aunt Margaret:

Jack and I had a short visit with Mom and Dad this evening. Dad has certainly made great strides in the last week. On Thursday he had a bath, got his hair cut and had a pedicure (no polish) -- all in the morning. He has much improved range of motion with his left arm and can make a good fist. Mom got a perm and a pedicure on Thursday morning also. They both looked good -- Mom seemed 'happier'. Dad tried sleeping in the bed Thursday night. First part of the night he couldn't seem to get comfortable. Mom gave him some more Tylenol and he slept the rest of the night! Dad says he doesn't know what she's giving him. (He's joking)
