My dad turned 83 yesterday; we were able to have a small impromptu party at the rehab hospital. (It was also my Aunt Marina’s birthday the day before.) Thanks to everyone who came out, and those who brought food and drink to share!
He’s still pretty exhausted, two weeks post-stroke and heart attack, so two hours sitting upright and talking to people was a lot right now, but I know he enjoyed seeing old friends and new. And despite tiredness, he was still able to blow out the candles on his cake!
Special thanks to Haran Koneswaran on the guitar — lovely to close out the party with some songs! Little video links in comments.
(Attendees, if you have any other good pics you’d like to share, please do send them to me; I’d love to add them to this post, so my dad has them all in one place.)
