Harold McElroy transferred to rehab hospital

Linda McElroy of Pawleys Island, South Carolina, sent this email about her husband, BJ business department retiree Harold McElroy:


Hi Everyone;

Harold has been transferred to Health South Rehabilitation Hospital of Charleston, 9181 Medcom Street, Charleston, S.C. 29406 on Friday.

He is doing some better and will have therapy of all kinds for several hours a day. He is getting stronger. He is on a feeding tube for nourishment and is handling it very well. His voice is still weak, but improving. They think he will be there one to two weeks.

We were not able to go to a facility closer to home at this time.

I came home tonight to get clothes for him. Getting dressed is part of the therapy. I will go back in the morning and will stay at a hotel close by until we can come home to stay,

Thanks for all of your prayers and cards. They are greatly appreciated.

Take care.

Love, Linda and Harold
