March Update

I have been trying to type a new post for several weeks but have had difficulty sitting upright and getting a good calibration with weakening neck muscles.  I have started using a neck pillow to support head positioning when I sit in my recliner lift chair.  We identified a new stand that will fit around   my recliner and ordered it last week. Has to ship from Germany and will take about two weeks. It is expensive, almost $1000.

The big news is that the movers are came on Friday to move our stuff out of storage after 12 months to the new house whether Dave was finished with the renovations or not.  When we built our house in Mechanicsburg it took less time than the renovations.  It will take a few days to unpack to the point we can move in and have to move my hospital bed and other equipment. 

The most exciting part for me is to be able to take a shower for the first time in 7 months.  We also installed a ceiling lift and 3 tracks for the bedroom, bathroom, and family room to eliminate manual transfers and the number of body slams I endure on a daily basis.  Kim, Jean, Kelly and KC have been busy unpacking the last few days and Verizon came Saturday to hook up our TVs ss

Chuck came for a visit earlier this month and Forest did also.  Dad will come for a visit in two weeks and will be our first guest in our new home.

Our new address will be:

1244 Westerly Parkway, Apt.28
State College,PA 16801
