Boy oh boy, there's something wrong with that picture. Glad you made it home o.k. Better home than somewhere else I guess. The older men alone around here no matter how disabled they are want to stay in their homes. Well, some major inconvenience (matter of attitude) for a few months will be worth it for the sake of a healthy rest of your life. And this too will pass and be over soon. There are no major deals today that can't be handled with God. It certainly seems you should have some home help.
How in the world are you going to handle everything there that needs to be done. Are you possibly able to hire someone to come and stay there. Possibly someone with a Motorhome?
Glad you are home John. Too bad the wood stove did not get hooked up before you had your accident. It sure would be nice to sit next to it with a good book when you can't get about all that easy. Hope you mend soon. Best wishes from Michael in Maine.
I'm hoping your neighbors can fix up a temporary ramp for your wheels ... and help with the chores & water transfers that you don't have automated. Makin it to the outhouse is a challenge right now. ~Eric
That photo put a big smile on my face. Are you thinking what I'd be thinking,nothing beats me ? Won't be easy,anything worthwhile never is. Just another obstacle and character exercise........
Good to see you home John. I'm sure you'll figure out a routine that works for your current situation. There's a bunch of us who wish we were closer so we could help out. Looks like you're going to have plenty to blog about in the upcoming days. Take care.
Horrible pics by the way. Hope you heal quickly. were you alone when this happened? How did you get to help? My step grand-daughter had to be air lifted from Landsdown to Fairfax. The flight was only 12 minutes. The final bill came to more than 25,000 for the air lift. They had incredible insurance. I'd be screwed if that happened to me. I'm glad your back home.
Glad to see you home.

ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you're home. I also see you're sporting the yellow socks. I guess they had you on the morphine.

ReplyDeleteCan you farm all your critters out for a few months. You are going to have your hands full just taking care of yourself. Get well soon.
ReplyDeleteGet better so you can go out and try to do it again, or have you learned your lesson (grin).

ReplyDeletea ramp and a golf cart type vehicle and/or one of those mobility scooters.
ReplyDeleteJohn is not going to sit in that building 24/7 - he's going to move around but he needs to do it in a way to not re-injure himself.
Hi John,
ReplyDeleteHorrible pics by the way. Hope you heal quickly. were you alone when this happened? How did you get to help? My step grand-daughter had to be air lifted from Landsdown to Fairfax. The flight was only 12 minutes. The final bill came to more than 25,000 for the air lift. They had incredible insurance. I'd be screwed if that happened to me. I'm glad your back home.
Glad to see you are home again John! Hope the leg heals fast!
