14 Days

We had never intended to spend 14 days with Pam and Randy. The days are peppered with visits by the PT's and OT's and a virtual appointment with an excellent doctor. By the end of the 14 days, she has made remarkable progress and is cleared to fly and return home.

She has two PTs with Joe the most excellent. He has her negotiate the two steps into and out of Pam's home and on his last day with her, gets her into and out of our rental car. She shocks all of us with the ease she manages it. She also wrong foots her first attempt at steps. According to Joe, the wrong footing should cause extreme pain. An indication of her healing progress is that she has none when she does it.

As a reward for her hard work, we schedule a 'field trip' on our last Saturday. Her brother Bill has driven from central Florida and her sister who lives near also joins.
