first of all my dad did not hurt his neck any more falling out of bed~ thank goodness! while we were there, they took him to physical therapy and he was able to walk the full length of the parallel bars (like the ones they have in gymnastics) back and forth about 6 or 7 times. we did not get to see him do this, but the therapist told us. that is so awesome. i think he will feel so much better if he can get up and walk on his own. they had to put this cage like attachment on his bed to keep him from trying to get out again. they also put this thing (it kind of looks like a boxing glove) on his right hand to keep him from taking off his neck brace. in this video he seems so much like himself that it's hard to imagine that he isn't like that all the time. unfortunately that isn't the case. i guess i wouldn't feel to much like myself either if i was in his situation.
sorry about the video clip not working. i have no idea why it's not downloading. i will try again later.
