Ot.dads progress

John C Lucas

Think dad has finally turned the corner so i may be able to go home for a few days. If you have aging parents go see them often. Things like this just come out of the blue. I livr 4 hous away so its hard to come as often as you like. Having both parents in the hospital at the same time is scary. Moms going home Thursday is is great

Very true.

Luckily my parents live 3 blocks from me.

Dad lost a foot last year to a weird infection and diabetic complications.

He is up and walking a bit now on a prosthetic.

Just in time for the garden.

Good news about your dad's progress (and your mother).

Years ago my mother was in the hospital in PA which was an all-day drive, my brother was about 4 hrs away so he went when I had to go home. Then when dad was in care in VA it was closer, about 6 hrs, but still far enough I couldn't get up there as often as I wanted.

You are right, go see them often, as often as possible.
