Home Sweet Home


Welcoming Committee




A month ago Sister was taken out to an ambulance on a stretcher and today she walked in to the house under her own power.  We are thankful to God and to you who have been with us during the journey back home. 

This will be my last blog for a while.  So far, so good!

The End Game


These are the wonderful Physical Therapists who worked with Sister during her stay at the Gardens.

She looked forward to her sessions every day and has nothing but praise for them.

They could not make her young again but they worked hard to make the old bones, joints and muscles work as good as possible.   There will be one more session tomorrow before she is discharged at 9 a.m.

As this episode in our lives winds down we are thankful for all the love and support we have received from friends and family and for the professionals who made it possible for Sister to come home again.

Walk like a Champion


We're all smiles today.  The Physical Therapist looked everything over at the house and signed the OK for Sister to come home on Wednesday.  She will get a side rail for the bed, a bench for the bathtub and a flexible shower head to insure her independence and mobility. 

We had a nice afternoon at home after the PT left.  We had a dish of ice cream and watched a Disney movie about the Lippizaner stallions. 

 To top it off, the thermos bottle was found.
