Thanks for all of the postings. It's amazing that for the past year my family has been searching the web for information with very little luck and within one week I have found a wealth of information and I'm very grateful for that.
My dad is almost 69 and he lives in IL. He's is doing remarkably well and is frustrated that he's not doing even better. I don't know if that's for the better or worse that he doesn't seem to realize how serious his break was. But, I try not to go places he doesn't initiate. He is at home with a live-in caretaker, who is wonderful, and I would love for him to get the voice program for the computer. But I'm not sure that will happen, at least not yet. I'm glad to hear that the computer has been a helpful tool because the computer is what he's showing most interest in right now. He has a critical decision to make and I hope we can find some information. If anyone could point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it, more than you know. Long story short, he needs a quadruple bypass. The quandary is, if he has this surgery is he going to lose all of the progress he's made but if he doesn't can the stint last forever. Thanks Again, It really helps finally knowing that all of this information is out there! It's too bad his rehab wasn't in a SPI rehab.
