Here you go -




My 3 day weekend is about over - I guess technically it is over. I've got some taco soup and 15 bean soup cooking so have to finish putting that up tonight. I did pretty well accomplishing everything I set out to do. In the mail today is the CD for Ben and Debbie and Jon and Erin that Sharon Tanner did for us. All the Christmas stuff is up and the closet organized. Even did a little organizing in our closet. Took dad to the cemetary today to look up a couple plots he'd been courious about. It was pretty nice today but they say we may have a "winter mix" tomorrow.
As you can see dad's chair is really nice. Rotates easily and is easy to control. I think he's anxious to get a vehicle now that will handle it. The ramp helps even with the walker though.
Hope you all have a great week! Love you,
Mom

That's going to be a real big blessing. I'm jealous of your winter mix too!! I would even take sleet about now. Maybe we'll get lucky tomorrow too....

Thanks for the pictures! That ramp looks great! Is that wood that comes out from the door to the ramp? Will Dad be able to get to the rocking chairs still? The chair looks so nice too! It's great that Dad is looking forward to using it. Did you ask the Dr. your vehicle questions?

It is a wood platform next to the door. Dad will have to be very careful stepping up and down to get the chairs but the railing stops where the columns are so you can get to them. The MUSC Dr. said to wait and see what the treatments do. Dad said he doesn't see any change, but I want to wait to talk with her again.
