Welcome note

When my husband and I set out to find and take pictures of wheelchair accessible waterfalls in every U.S. state, we were excited about the challenge. We gave ourselves no time limit to accomplish our feat; however, we had one mutually agreed upon rule that dictated how long we would stay in any given area. That rule was to never shiver again. Needless to say, adhering to this rule presented a new challenge. The new challenge was to find a waterfall that was actually flowing. Visiting mid-west and eastern states during months that prevented us from shivering are the same months that are hot enough to dry up streams; hence, little or no water flow for waterfalls. The natural scenery and picturesque landscapes warrant a second visit in the early spring right after the snow melts.

No "miracle" nurse today

Thank you in advance for your support and contribution.


Bob's "miracle" nurse is off today and tomorrow, so not much happened today. I guess she's allowed her two days off. The other nurses don't move him too much. The PT stood him and walked him one step. Little does she know that Bob has walked four steps on previous days.

Bob's left foot needs a lot of exercising. It drags quite a bit. The PT will get a brace for now. Drop foot can be a "tripping" factor. I know, because I have a brace myself due to drop foot on the same foot.

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

"Father in heaven, today I declare my thanks to You for all You have done in my life. Help me see Your hand of blessing as I continually acknowledge and praise Your name. Fill me with Your peace and joy as I keep You first place in all that I do. In Jesus' Name. Amen"
