We need help. Both physical and knowledge. The hospital doctors and the social workers are pushing the rehab facility down our throats so to speak. They are paranoid that I can't take care of Joe when he gets home. They think that I and he won't be able to move around to get in and out of the truck and the house. They seem to be threatening discharge before he has any strength back. We seem to be banging our heads against a brick wall
The social worker called and said that the in home therapy companies that she reached out to declined treating him.
She claimed it was because of our current insurance ????

Re: MayDay, We need help,
Update: Physical therapists have been trying to help Joe get back on his feet, only to discover that whatever happened that Friday when he went to stand up destroyed whatever was left of his left knee.
He has relented to the fact that he is going to need some rehab in order to evaluate the knee and what can be done for it. :'(
So I need to find a good used van that we can use once he does get to go home.
Needless to say he is not thrilled with this current status.
Financially we have a small amount to buy another vehicle...
