Mega healing purrs are still headed your way, Pam. You and Rob are in my
prayers and I hope only the best for you both.

I haven't been online since Sunday? Or something like that. Rob is home.
He was released from the hospital on Tuesday. On Wednesday he was signed
into hospice, again. His right side is very weak and he cannot walk on his
own. We now own a wheel chair. He cannot use the toilet and has to wear
either adult diapers or depends. Hospice will not supply any of the
incontinence materials he needs. Sigh. In order to get the wheel chair
into our room for him, we had to have the bedroom door removed.
interesting effects when taking showers or changing clothing. Since his
right side doesn't work properly, we are either feeding him, or giving him
food he can use his left hand with. Sigh again. But at least he is home.
We've been up to our necks in alligators and busy. Hospice means the end
to what little privacy we had, though it is what Rob needs at the moment.
The cats seem to think that I'd dumped him and then changed my mind. It
has been four days and Huey still hasn't forgiven me. QC thinks the wheel
chair is a great place to sleep. The rest of the gang are reserving
judgment. Tanada, however, seems to think that my latest behavior means
that she no longer has to behave and has been busy stealing my food,
water, books, and bed. We argue a lot.
