This time two years ago, things were looking pretty good for Mom. Her participation in physical and occupational therapy was increasing daily. She was able to walk just about anywhere with the help of a walker. I would visit every day after work, and she would usually be in therapy. The therapist would tell her to do something ten times, Mom would always do two or three more. For the first time since the surgery, she was showing her determination to go home.
The family was visiting every day from early morning to bed time. Still,  things were happening to cause some concerns. The shower issue, the response time to the call bells, finding Mom naked from the waist down, "drying off ", as the nurse called it.
 The social worker was called in to discuss things, her response was that everything was normal. The issues were important to us, but when you see someone getting better, that's what you notice most. There was a family meeting scheduled to discuss these problems. That particular meeting happened to be when they decided that Mom had reached her goals, and was ready to go home. They were back and forth, first it was to be November 2, then changed to November 3.
This was the best news we had had received since September 7th, the day she had her surgery. There was some disagreement where Mom was going to be staying at first. But everyone did what they could to get the necessary medical equipment.
 Mom made the decision to stay at my oldest sisters house. Simply because it was the only place she could have someone with her round the clock, as she continued to recover. Considering the fact that my oldest sister had been sleeping in a chair at Mom's when she was home the first time. It just made sense, plus there were only two small steps to get in the front door.
With the good news, the problems with Hendersonville Health and Rehabilitation seemed less important. Getting Mom out of there took priority over every thing else, she only had five more days. Finally things were getting better, Mom would be home for the Holidays.
