Cypress, there are a lot of perfectly healthy people with lots of money living north of the border who are less fortunate than I. I am, for a fact, not tortured with the fear of "
I Have More To Lose".

Ensenadadr,

Nothing is set in stone. Dennis can go home and if he finds it to be too much to deal with, he can come back and do rehab in the states (NOB as nomads call it).

It seems to me that it's not a matter of right or wrong. It's a matter of try it and see.

You are right Skipjack, absolutely!!! It's always the patient's decision in the end.

reminds me of a Dylan song................

"Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They’re drinkin’, thinkin’ that they got it made
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things
But you’d better lift your diamond ring, you’d better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls you, you can’t refuse
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You’re invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?"

EnsenadaDr, walk away, you from what I have read have done everthing you could possible do. There is a lot that I could say, as a teenager I was a major player in taking care of a stroke victim. It is something I hope to never have to do again. Dennis your mind is strong, your body isn't, use your mind to think about all of the things that will go wrong with out 24 hour care. Your choice, good luck

Thanks Prorader. I don't have a choice in the matter. I cannot provide 24 hour care, I am still working in my clinic daily and will be leaving for a month in mid-August. So I cannot do any more.

I agree with prorade 100 %.

I took care of my mother - a stroke victim - for 25 years.

It is a grueling task. For the victim and the care giver.

You did the best, EnsenadaDr. Get on with your life now.

It is a hard one to deal with and accept ... that being, losing one's ability to "move" freely about ... just is ...

Best of luck ... :):)

DR continue to do what you do, take the training that you need, if I need help I would call you in a minute. We give and Give and people take and take and when it is over you are who you are, if the takers quit taking, you are still U and I think in your case that is a good think. I would as much as say you where Dennis's Angel, we all should be so lucky. I will be moving there 30 July in PB would love to buy you a drink. Good job Doc

Thanks for the photos, willardguy. I notice that the nurse's uniforms have a quick-release front zipper.
