Neighbors and friends were called for assistance once we got near home. I had 6 people help me get into the house, assisting my wife in setting up the spare bedroom for my use, unpacking the car and putting away the bicycles. Friends and neighbors have continued to be invaluable. They have installed entry ramps, replaced showerheads, installed grab bars in the shower, provided a commode adaptor to allow the use of grab rails in using the facilities and provided meals. In short, they have been fabulous.


I hope this report of my experience will be helpful to the community.


Welcome, old goat!

I have waterless shampoo, shaving kit, and body wipes in our 96 hour kits, which are in our cars. It's amazing what just that will for to your morale, as you know.There have been several hospital visits that have gone MUCH better than it would have because of what we carry in our vehicles.

Be sure to throw a thank-you party or something for your kind neighbors. I'm sure you'd be in the forefront helping them out in a similar situation.

Again, welcome!
