Liz called today to report a couple of things (she had been visiting M&D):
First, they will be moving Dad tomorrow into a double room where he will have a roommate. If you remember, his current single room was only temporary. We've been told that his roommate is a very nice guy and we're hoping that this is a positive change for Dad. Not sure he realizes that this will be his 'permanent' home, but he probably does. Since this is permanent, I expect that they will tell us very soon that we need to move everything out of the apartment. Guess we'd better get going on that soon! It will be good to get some of Dad's furniture into the room so it feels more like home.
Second, Dad no longer needs his eating supervised so he will now be dining in the non-supervised dining room. He is a bit concerned about the move, since he will be eating with 'new' people, but we think it is a good thing as the people in there are higher functioning and should be more interesting to him. I hope he continues to eat well without being supervised. And... LeeAnne asked Mom if she would come eat with Dad now that he is in the non-supervised dining room and she said she would! Hope that works out for real.
