Default A Year in Review

Wow, looking back over the year has brought a lot of changes:

cane, AFO's, transport wheelchair- check

grab-bars in shower & at toilets, raised toilet seats, stair-chair- check

Social Security disability, Medicare, supplemental insurance & drug plan- check

walker, scooter- check

permanent ramp (into house), temporary ramp (for family room)- check

power wheelchair, wheelchair accessible van, elevator- check

painting- in progress

bathroom renovations- next up


Seems like the year flew by; but, seems so long ago that Jim first started to use his cane! Time to slow down!

Come January, I'm going onto hibernation!

Sometimes I wish that our lives were like a DVD-we could freeze, replay or fast forward! I invite you to the Girl's Slumber Party-way more fun than single hibernation! :]

Mare,

That's a lot of stuff in just one year. I second your hibernation!
