    Glad things went well, Shana! Hope his recovery is great.

    Sharlene that is horrible about your BIL! I hope they find a solution that works for all.

    My brother in law was moved to a rehab hospital about an hour from my sister. His mind has been affected by the stroke to some degree and he still can't get out of bed by himself and there is some issue with his swallowing, but he is hanging in there. Unfortunately he can only be there till 7 December, so not sure what will happen after that. He can't go home if he can't get in and out of bed and he forgets that he can't get out of bed and walk, so they said he can't be alone either. This is a real problem. He is a big guy and my sister isn't not a very big woman, so she can't really help him to get up. He can't even stand.

    We are off to china, and I'm in the last stages of packing now, so I won't be around and since we are basically going to be away for the most part till the new year I'm hoping that everything remains stable with the family.

    I'm so sorry things have not progressed better for your BIL and I hope a solution can be found that fits his needs soon.

    Enjoy your time away and try not to worry too much about things at home.
    Hugs,
    Leslie

    Back from China but not back to welcome news. My BIL passed away while we were in China. We are leaving for the funeral/memorial to be held this weekend.

    Then straight into another flight to British Columbia when we return from California. My gawd, I need a nap!

    Sorry that I haven't been around for a while, thanks to a lingering flu thing and life being a bit busy, but have thought of you all often.
    Sharlene, I know it's late, my condolences to you and your family. I'm so sorry to hear about your brother-in-law. I hope 2018 gives you the chance to relax a bit.
