Jesse has been transferred out of the Altoona Regional Hospital ICU and into the HealthSouth Rehabilitative Unit in Altoona. Prior to the transfer, Jesse had a very positive day; he was able to sit up in a regular chair, an improvement over requiring the assistance of the Orthopedic chair. At one point Jesse was able to lift his entire right leg off of the bed and was twice able to wiggle his right toes -- signs of very successful progress!
Jesse was moved to HealthSouth via ambulance and now resides in room 101D. He does have a roommate.
Get Well Cards may be sent to Jesse Northridge c/o HealthSouth, 2005 Valley View Blvd, Altoona, PA 16601. You do not need to include a room number.
Visitors to HealthSouth are welcome weekdays 4-8pm and weekends noon-8pm. Please be very respectful of Jesse's roommate. Juniata college students: please consider coordinating your visitation schedules through Chaplain Dave Witkovsky so that Jesse can have a continuous flow of visitors and not single, large slugs.

Jesse - prayers and warm thoughts coming to you from Iowa. My daughter is a student @ JC, my husband and I graduated from JC, and I went to high school in Johnstown with your future father-in-law (and knew your future mother-in-law). Speedy recovery!
ReplyDeleteWhat did the zero say to the eight? Nice Belt! (my family just groans at my 'jokes')
