Fritz out on the back patio not 20 minutes ago on one of his many excursions to the patio.You have go out and prod him to come back in,won't come in on his own.We had friends visit dad today,Fritz grabbed the lady's boot,one like mom's.Fritz also latched on to my running shoe and mom's slipper.He was in the window when mom went to the garage with a bag of garbage and he took off and grabbed it.Even with help,dad somehow can't find any strength in his legs to pull himself up.A therapist is coming tomorrow,see what that does and maybe we wil have the pills.I am getting a little worried about him.He has had problems with his legs for a lot longer than he told anyone about ,not even our family doctor.had he told anybody sooner,he may have been in better shape now.

Fritz!! You keep us entertained, you little scamp!! You're so smart and cute

What a horrible situation it is for your Dad, Barry. Is there anyway you can get something like a handle above him so he can pull himself up? There's a name for it but I don't know what it is. Hopefully, the therapist has some good ideas. I can imagine how frustrating it is since I have such bad arthritis myself. It really controls your life and it's no fun at all. I'll keep you all in my prayers.

Fritz about 20-30 minutes ago snoozing on the blanket.Dad started taking the pills tonight,so we will see how this works out.Got a Wheelchair,but the backrest is too big,too much foam,so probably need another one.Fritz didn't like the wheelchair,barked at it and would run from it when it got near him.Now have a big plastic toilet seat over the existing one to make it easy for dad.

Fritz isn't sure if the wheelchair is completely safe for Papa yet. He has to check everything out as we all know. It's ok buddy. It will help Papa. I'm just thrilled that your Dad has started the meds, Barry. I sure hope it helps him. Keep taking good care of Papa, Fritzie!!
That's a great picture of everyone, Barry. Your Dad, Mom, and Fritz look real good.

This is how I found Fritz this this morning,covered up next to Dad and later with mom while she reads the paper.He had his all his breakfast today.I just had to put him in his cage,the speech therapist is coming to help Dad speak a little clearer.Mom was worried about my last night,had pains in her stomach,thought she might have to go to the hospital.she phoned a few minutes ago,she is fine now,pains have gone,mom thought it might be she is eating too many Apples.Fritz barked a little bit after he went to the cage,he has quieted down for now and when the doorbell rings shortly he will bark again. Mom is going to call the lady about the wheelchair and see what can be done.
