(OOPS! THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN PATRICIA SENDS A PHOTO FROM THE BLACKBERRY - THIS ISN'T THE ONE I THOUGHT IT WAS!)
LET'S CALL IT "MICHAEL AND PATRICIA GRINNING DOWN AT THE WHEELCHAIR MICHAEL WON'T NEED VERY SOON."
We went to Solutions Rehab for a tour...we saw...we talked...we reconsidered...we decided: we're going home!
Sister Karen researched and discovered an out-patient physical therapy place in our own home town of Paso Robles (yay, Karen!) that does physical and occupational therapy - and there's a well-recommended speech therapist (for spatial and cognition work) in San Luis Obispo.
Although it was worth considering the value of 6-8 weeks of 8 hours a day at Solutions, Michael is so sensitive to smells, sounds and disturbances in his "Force" right now, that it is entirely disruptive to his system to extend our life elsewhere.
Out-patient may only be two hours 3x a week - but Michael will be there wholeheartedly and with more energy after being in our own comforting and controllable home.
Everyone together now: click your heels. "There's NO place like home! There's NO place like home!"
Yes, Dorothy - we're going back to Kansas (only with wineries everywhere).
Thank God!

Hey there, beautiful! You're gorgeous--even all strung out, you're a beauty. (((hugs)))
Glad to hear you guys are going home (as in home). Hope it is/was a safe trip and that you revel in all things comfortable and serene.
Be good and kind to each other, and be sure to sacrifice a goat to the gods for all their amazing miracles. :)
Love you both,
Sona
