Whew, you ladies are going to think I am not being honest with this group but

I assure you that I am. We have a hoyer lift right in Judy's room (it is the

hydraulic one because of her weight) however she refuses to use it. She is

afraid of the " swinging in the air " that occurs on transfer. She wiggles and

squirms, cries and carries on to the point of endangering herself and me if she

should fall out of the harness (although unlikely w/the five point).

Finding a housekeeper is something I had not thought of and will be looking

into that right away. To take the burden away somewhere else would be a big

help. Thanks for that suggestion!

Take care all. Prayers for pain free moments in your days......
