I located a local rehab center and continued immediately. Within weeks Jim was making great strides towards feeding himself and getting out of bed on his own. Our insurance was all gone, therefore we were paying out of pocket. At that point, money was not the issue. The important thing was to get him well. Several weeks had passed and one day around noon Jim was sitting at the dining room table where he would practice his signature. All of a sudden I heard a loud shout and laughter coming from the room. “Come look at this” go get my checkbook and give it back to me because I can write my own name again. That was one more milestone accomplished and we both had a good laugh.
