And the good news from the four of us (Lynn<\/strong> [aka “Squatch”<\/em><\/strong>], JLA<\/strong>, Joanne D<\/strong>, and myself, SoINeedAName<\/strong>) just keeps rolling along.<\/p>\n

I’ll begin with our routine Disclaimer: We share your desire for as much information on TC<\/strong> as possible.  But we will continue to respect his privacy, and recognize the hospital has an ethical and legal obligation as directed by HIPAA guidelines to also protect his privacy.  <\/em><\/p>\n

Today I had the chance to speak with his nurse at his NEW LOCATION!<\/p>\n

Yep, TC had a successful transfer over the weekend and is now in the process of settling in at his new (hopefully fairly short-term) abode!  He’s continuing multiple therapy regimens – ones that anyone would anticipate after facing several very major medical problems.<\/p>\n

The new nurse was very pleasant, but more circumspect than the ones at the previous hospitals, with whom I had the chance to speak with on multiple occasions.  She was clearly intent on protecting his privacy – which is only appropriate (just frustrating for someone snoopy like myself).  But she did a good job in the regard, so I really don’t have much more to share, other than he’s settling in and working on getting better.<\/p>\n

None of us are “designated contacts” which allows medical personnel to provide a fuller update – so we’ll have to wait and see what we can learn from some friends in the Portland area who are and have had the chance to visit him at his previous institutions.  They have been kind enough to share updates with us in the past; but so far, according to the nurse today, they’ve not had the chance to get to the new location yet.<\/p>\n

So we’re all glad to see that he’s continuing to make progress, and ask you to keep him in your thoughts and prayers – AND keep those cards and letters coming, addressed as follows …<\/p>\n
