Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to let you know that Grandpa/Dad/Bob has been moved to Intermediate Care. This means that he has made some progress to get out of the ICU!!
My Dad (Paul), and my two kids (Will & Walker) and I arrived last night to spend some time here in Utah. Grandpa/Dad/Bob had a little bit of a rough night and they were worried about his heart. They did some testing though and there are no blood clots and everything looks good.
He has a great nurse on this floor, Justin, who has already (in the short two hours he's been in here) built a nice rapport with Grandpa/Dad/Bob. Justin was called in just to work with Grandpa and one other patient, so we feel good about the care he is getting.
Grandpa is still really hoping for food (esp. chocolate pudding) but he is still not swallowing properly. He continues to work on his exercises as directed by the speech therapist, so hopefully in the next few days he can have something more than ice.
I will update this as there is news!!
Love,
Shelly

This is Amelia Nielson ("Amanda Panda" to the Walker grandparents) sending my love to Bob and Joyce!
Thank you so much for the website. Us family who can't come visit as often really appreciate it! I hadn't heard anything for awhile and so this has been awesome! My family Loves Bob and Joyce so much. I hope that I get to see some of you as you come to town. My cute little girls bless Bob in their prayers every night. I'm not sure if they are putting two and two together to know who they are blessing (they know him more by sight than by name..on the other hand they do know the name just not name and face together) but they love to pray. And they pray often!
Love to all....keep us posted!
Love Cheri
