Third Time's (Hopefully) a Charm

Mom is home, safe and sound as of yesterday afternoon. I was able to take the afternoon off work and help her get home via MetroWest, and after a couple bathroom visits, Dad's estimate was that she is stronger than ever before and more likely to be able to handle her new level of mobility. The new dilantin dosage must really be helping, but to be sure, a nurse will be by today to take levels and make sure that she's on track medication-wise. There are also some home care and therapy visits scheduled today and through the next several weeks, all of which should really help Mom handle her surroundings.

All I know is she is thrilled to be out of Maryville, and the morale boost alone has helped tremendously.
