Yesterday Jeff Visit
Yesterday's Jeff visit was with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sf_luke! We got there about 5:45 and they were just moving him from ICU to his room up on the 6th floor. It is a ward actually with 6 beds, so it is less private, and to me more annoying. Hopefully Jeff will get better to move to a private room soon.
It was a nice visit. Luke brought a baloon, and did a little artwork of the Castro and put it on the paper towel dispenser.
He took this photo while I was talking to Jeff... You can see Jeff's arm, but we are not goign to take photos of Jeff since that would just be wrong.
I talked quite a bit and he communicated as best as he could. At one point he let go of my hand, pointed at himself, then pointed at me. I asked what that meant, and then said "You want me to take me with you?" He shook his head yes! I can totally understand where he is coming from. Phil told me he did the same gesture to him earlier, but did not know what he wanted. He just wants out. I told him he needs to be there to heal and recover, and one day soon he will be going home where he belongs.
I will be visiting him this afternoon.
Fundraiser status. last night,boyshapedbox and KUMA SF raised $286 for the Jeff Recovery Fund! AMAZING. Richard said it was GoGo tips, food tips, donations from DJ's, and even a donation from the bar! What a great community. Thanks to everyone again who has helped out.
This brings the total to $4996.00 so far!!
Next stop, the Eagle.
