    They want to be sure I can move about and do what I need to do for my daily routines all right on my own.

    On Monday I am going to the UM hospital to have the staples removed, and on Tuesday we have a "home eval" potentially scheduled: a physical therapist and an occupational therapist will come to my place with me to see just what I have to deal with in my regular life at home, how I can handle them now, and what adaptations might have to be made.
    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.

    You've done remarkably well--wonderful progress in my opinion. I know you'll be glad to be home but don't overdo.

    Thank you, Kay. I'm keeping that in mind, to be VERY careful and not overdo anything. I want this to be a keeper!

    Thank you, Anne. Staples were removed yesterday at the hospital, and all looks well, I'm told.

    Today is the home eval visit!

    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.

    Yay! And will the kitties get to come home that day, or will you wait a day just to be sure?

    I will still be restricted for a while.. no bending, no twisting, no lifting over 5 lbs., and no driving. I am working on methods to scoop litter small amounts at a time. Someone will have to take me to get more cat food and litter first. I won't be able to lift a cat for a while, either, once they're home.

    Not sure just when I can get the cats back, someone will have to take me to do that too. My sister might help me get the two at the boarding facility.

    Pat ~ I'm so glad everything is going so well. Sleeping in your own bed with your kitties will speed up the healing process.
