It's a bigger room with a bathroom like I said, but it's laid out the mirror oposite of his other room so he has to get used to doing everything different now. Getting out of the other side of the bed, etc etc. I guess all those years of me randomly moving all of the furniture in the house has prepared him for being flexible about these things. Either that or he'll get up to have a wee in the middle of the night and find he's out in the hall.
But it does have a great veiw, and yes you can actually see a real live tree and a patch of grass. But you can also see across the roof to other rooms (and they can see in) so I had to show him how to work the blinds :-)
So if you're going to pop in and see him, you have to go to the nurses' station and turn down the side hall now. It's the last door on the right, room 4252.
He's got more DVDs than he could watch in a year, and books and magazines coming out the wazoo (I know, I know, enough of the medical jargon, Radha!). And I switched out his electric guitar for his accoustic. So the guy is pretty set for things to occupy his time. Still the most appreciated thing right now is a phone call or a visit. He's quite disconnected from the real world up there.
Many more thanks to the most recent visitors and callers, and thanks for the wishes, prayers, cards, food and more that's been sent his way. He's keeping positive and doing great so far. More tomorrow when we find out about the lumbar puncture (yipes!).
