Day 38

Day 38: Wednesday

Roger had another great day. I brought lots of paperwork for him to sign. The joys of now being "disabled". What a terrible word! But if he gets the necessities he needs I guess it's just what has to be done.

Tomorrow the physical therapist and occupational therapist are taking him and a few others in a van to the mall so they can experience the "real world". They invited me to go so I may just have to hop in the van with them all. It is pretty cool to see the relationships Roger has made with some of the other patients.

Other than that he is kicking butt and counting down the days until Tuesday! I went to a really awesome place today that is giving him grab bars for the bathroom and a shower chair. The place is called Care Chest and it was started in 1990 by 2 pharmacists. They were tired of turning people away because of insurance or the inability to pay. So now they have a warehouse full of medical supplies that are essentially free. Roger has to sign a couple papers and then I can go back tomorrow and pick up the stuff. It is awesome to know that there are still people out there with a big heart! Roger has been so blessed through this all!!

Take care all and stay warm! I woke up to -2 weather in Reno! Yikes!! Much love to you!
