She went through rehab at the hospital, then had a physical therapist come to the house for a while. Since then, she’s been rehabbing on her own, going through the exercises prescribed by the physical therapist every day, and adding a bit more on her own. One day she would take a couple steps with her walker, the next she’d head down to get her mail by herself. The she figured out how to get down the hall with a walker to do her laundry, how to take the garbage out, how to get outside on her own when my sistr Cheryl came by to help her run errands. The week before we all met in Louisville to celebrate her birthday, Flo renewed her drivers license. [...] [...] Flo fell in her apartment in December.

Great news about your mom, Flo, though. I'm so proud of her. I jsut love the idea of her having a basket rigged on the walker so she can do *her* laundry herself. Love that independent spirit!!!

And thanks for the compliment, but I'm not as young as you think. Flo is actually my mother. You're not the first to think she is my grandma, though -- she was 43 years old when I was born. And gee, maybe having kids when you're 40+ keeps you young? She's doing grrrrrreat! No new harness handle from Lucaas yet — he’s a busy man!

And how is Flo? Based on her age (go, Flo), I am guessing that she is your grandmother? I'm enjoying keeping track of all of the progress--yours and Flo's. Vanessa and the fuzzy children (Griffin and Kitkat) P.S. I should probably introduce Kitkat. he is the long-haired cat that I adopted last year. He's a little stinker, and he and Griffin get along pretty well. Beth, it has been awhile since I last checked in, so what is the news with the patented handle from our friend, Lucas? And how is Flo?
