I forgot to mention that Mother is in an assisted living facility in VMRC (Virginia Mennonite Retirement Community). It's a wonderful place and the therapists come right to her room and take her to therapy.
She's had a lot of pain and thanks to Phil, my brother who visited last week from Texas, she has better pain meds that are helping some. He also got her into an orthopedic doctor for evaluation. She has so many things wrong in her lower back that even I could see it on the MRI. They're going to try an epidural steroid injection on July 9th, in hopes that she'll get some relief. We'll be back from bringing the RV home before that.
Mother's goal is to get stronger so that she can return to her beautiful view and her "stuff" on the farm near Singers Glen. We all hope this will happen.
