Kenn is doing good. I was able to get him out this last Sun. and Mon. when I visited. Sun. afternoon when he was up in his chair I cut his hair and trimmed his moustache. He slept
through most of my visit but I still took him outside for awhile. His temperature never amounted to anything, which is good. On Mon. afternoon I had my daughter-in-law come to watch the daycare kids so that I could take off to visit Kenn before my Brain Injury Support Meeting. I took him outside for awhile. He slept most of my visit again. At the support
meeting they had a few people who had a previous brain injury talk. They told what they went
through and then a family member told what they went through. It was very interesting to
listen to. After the meeting I went back over to see Kenn and he was still up in his chair. He
was very alert. I asked him if his nose had itched or something because I had talked to some
people at the meeting about him and he frowned at me. He was moving his tongue and so I
told him to put his tongue out on his lower lip. I encouraged him to keep trying. He got it just
inside his lower lip. I told him to work on that this week and also to try to get his tongue up
to touch his upper lip. When I kissed him on his lips he kept his mouth open. I told him he
needed to close it. He did close it some just not all the way.
My lawyer wrote a letter to Worker's Comp lawyer asking if they would approve a transfer
for Kenn to St. Mary's Care Center on the southwest side of Madison. The decision is in their
hands. My Latin workout class at the dance studio on Sat. afternoon was great. I didn't have a
problem keeping up. We were really sweating when it was done. Shawn leaves early this evening for Romania and Jeremy might be going to Florida on Sat. with a co-worker for a week. He would like to stop and visit my parents there in Bell, Florida. Carol
