Guest guest Posted August 18, 2001 Report Share Posted August 18, 2001 From a patient's view.... Hire someone to help u now. As for the costs....well...u can not do it urself, family members sometimes can not handle seeing a family member ill, and the ill one is going to need the care anyway, so ya might as well get him use to that now. U need the rest and sometime to urself. nancy Strong wrote: > > Hi, > First thing is to arrange for help, you'll do yourself damage even in just > transfers.

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2001 Report Share Posted August 22, 2001 Hi So far the tracking system has been helpful. The complete installation will take place on Monday. We have a suspended version in our bathroom due to the high ceiling there. I will try to send some pixs this weekend. Say Hi to Maddie. Will you be going to the conference? I hope to see Bill Werre and give him some pictures to bring to Boston. We send love to you both Terri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
