Grandma's Hero's

 I do not remember most details of my stroke.  I do remember how calm my grandchildren handled the emergency. While she made the phone call for the fire department, he brought the dog inside and kenneled it.  Yes indeed, they were prepared,acted calmly and saved my life! Not all heroes wear capes,some carry pack backs.

I do not remember most of the details of the stroke, or the first three months after. I remember very little except being in adult diapers, being dragged to a shower by three CNAs 

'and scrubbed with a toilet brush  But I remember the ombudsman coming to visit me. I still don't know who called, but thank goodness they did, otherwise, I would be slipping further and further into nothing. After she came by, I was given a wheel chair, evaluated by physical therapy, and the sling needed to carry me around in a swing like device. called a Holyor lift. It is truly amazing what the right person can do. It took only a few hours to fix the problem of the lack of the swing that kept me from moving forward, that others did not care enough about me for days. A Halter lift sling was purchased in hours, after waiting for months The message being, some times telling is the only way to survive.
