Thursday, October 11

Tonight, I got home late, because Anthony and I went to see Barbra as she made her triumphal return to Brooklyn.  It was fun.  Aside from the terrifying height and steepness of the steps up to the seats.  I felt a bit like a mountain goat.

Today we had a great visit from Patricia O’Brien and Frank Smyth from UNIS.  David enjoyed hearing about UNIS and how things are going, and stories about the UN.  We hope to see you again when we are at home.  Therapies went on, as usual, except, Minet told us that it was her last day at the Jewish Home.  She was a bit emotional and said that if it weren’t for David, she would be pleased to be moving on to another job.  I am pretty sure she isn’t saying that to all her patients, but who knows.  We will see who his replacement PT is.

I am heading off to Vermont in the morning for a few days, and David was a little emotional about my not being around for a bit, but he will have a great stand-in in Kathleen.  All the arrangements were made for his trip home on Saturday – please let me know if you are planning on stopping by, so I can give Kathleen a heads up.
