Countdown is On!

Wow - it's hard to believe we are just days from bringing mom & dad back to their own home! We are working hard to get everything in place for them. So just three more days there and when he leaves for church Sunday - it's good-bye to Heartland. We surely have come a long way since entering their facility with dad at the end of January. We have a lot to be thankful for from that great staff of professionals. They were so good to my dad and mom, and I know that dad will miss them. Dad has made much progress since being under their care and we know that he has made friends forever there.

We are now making steps every day to get everything in place for dad's arrival Sunday. The hospital bed comes Friday, along with his lift. The bathroom is under construction and we are also working on the plumbing issues. We are lining up his therapy, home health and meds. . . and trying to get a schedule in place to provide them with the care they need from our family as they get settled into their life at home. Dad seems to be ready and so does mom. . . hopefully, by faith and hard work and persistence we will be ready too!
