Saturday

It has been a good week for Mom and Dad. I really believe that some thresholds have been crossed and barring any set backs the next 30 to 60 days may be pivotal in regaining Independence. We are nearing the end of the first evaluation period for Medicare coverage for in home care. We are hoping and will be pushing for another 30 days of OT and PT.

The home health staff is dwindling. The nurse dismissed Dad, no need for her to continue coming. His OT has moved to Oregon and has not been replaced yet. He still has the aide and PT coming but the aide may be on her way out if Dad continues to improve.

Our gratitude is on going and fails to fill the debt that we owe to you and our Father.

A special thanks and prayer request for Mom and Dad's long time neighbors, the Childress family. Leslie extended the back door landing to make it easier for Dad to get in and out of the house. It has made a huge difference. However, his wife Betty was in a car accident this week and broke her neck. I think she got to come home this weekend but will have a long recovery. We ask for your prayers for them today.

God is good!
