Has anyone brought a dog for him to pet yet?  You can bet that will perk him right up.

I made plans to stop by and visit this Tuesday. I'm passing right but on I-75. I called and asked his nurse if I could bring my Semper-Fi rescue dog Josie and she said "Sorry, but no." I am still going to stop by for a bit.

Any ideas on how to sneak a 70 lb Shepherd in?

Call and talk to the Charge Nurse.  Dog visits are great therapy.

"Hello Fluffy.  Visited Mark today. Not much change. He still can't move. He's in pain but I think it is more sensor related. Talks up a storm. He is going to be moved to another facility in a few days. I'll let you know when that happens."

@FluffyTheCat et al...

I visited Mark today on my way to Kentucky. He is definitely coming along. He is putting up a good fight. He is in pain a lot of the time, but he is remembering things. He is repeating things but doing great! I'm so grateful I was able to stop in. I hope it brightened his day.

He remembered his code to unlock his phone and after a few hoops to jump through (damn international call plans) we were able to get a call out to Fluffy and they talked for about 10 minutes.

Sorry for the confusion Fluffy! My receptionist got caught off-guard there for a minute. Mark's phone nor mine could make a call to Canada so I called my receptionist and she called Fluffy and had him call us so I could answer his phone for him - it all worked out! He really cheered up when he heard your voice and talked about the pups!

I told him he need to get up and chase the nurses down the hallway.

He had another rescue acquaintance (Erin) come in as I was on my way out, so he had extra company.

LOL. I was going to try and sneak in some Freedom Fries for him but I figured that would not be the best for him.

I couldn't bring the dog. He doesn't leave his room, we couldn't go to a gathering area. He is basically in isolation. You have to gown and glove to go in with him. His nurses were pretty good and accommodating though.
