It's 9:58 p.m. by my computer clock, and for some reason I'm still up. I didn't get a whole lot today, but I'm glad that I did what I did.

Tomorrow my...

Didn't hear from my husband last night. :-( I wanted to see if he did steps yesterday and how that went.
It seems like he has reached a bit of a plateau; and his advancements seem to be really slow in coming. He has SO MUCH...

Almost as soon as we came through the door, the Social Worker saw me and said, "Hi Linda! So good to see you!" She is such a hypocrite. I smiled and told her it was good to see her too. What I should have done was question the...

Called the beloved Social Worker and asked her why my husband wasn't getting physical therapy. Told her since we are on self pay he should be getting the service instead of sitting in his bed losing his muscle tone. She said,...

I am furious!
Found out yesterday that they didn't give my husband physical therapy because they are waiting for the results of the Reconsideration. We are paying $300 a day for my husband to sit in bed and lose more muscle...

My husband is very happy with his progress. He is walking with a walker and went further than he's gone in the past. Someone always follows him with a chair in case he needs to sit down. There has been no talk of doing stairs...
