Hey Kim, sorry I haven't been returning messages very well lately. If I don't reply the instant I get a message, I just seem to forget about it altogether. My wife is unable to stand anymore, and her left arm has been all but useless for about a year or better now. Her right arm isn't much good, but her right hand can still run the TV remote, and turn pages on her Kindle. Almost no swallowing issues, speech is slower, but still easily understandable. She used a BiPap at night only. We have a girl that comes in and helps her 4 days a week for 6 hours, this lets me go out and work some. The kids are great! Amazing how adaptable they are.
Glad to hear your dad gets out some, and really happy to hear about the vet benefits. Hope you get down to see him soon.
Gary
