After six grueling weeks of rehab, Gramps is sleeping at home tonight! I have observed others on this journey and have seen what a struggle physically emotionally and mentally the task of relearning can be. Gramps has always been one of my heroes, but even more now. Climbing a mountain is an incredible feat but maintaining your determination to get better, relearning everything from how to eat to how to walk to how to preform the most basic biological functions, that is something to be proud of. Even more amazing is the fact that this is only the beginning, returning home is a big adjustment, there is so much more to re-learn. Now with Grams and Rascal to cheer him on I am certain his recovery potential is unlimited. Please keep them in your prayers as establishing new routines and juggling lots of home health therapy appointments provide new challenges and frustrations. I can't wait to get home in October and see Gramps, I have a felling he might just be ready to start hitting the trail.
