Up the Incline

Back up the incline of the emotional roller coaster we go!  Dad is on the mend... sitting up and alert, though still having problems with his motor skills.  The chair he is sitting in doesn't help matters... he is kind of sunk back, which makes getting to the table impossible.  Dinner was an awkward procedure, but I was not allowed to help!  Nope... he was doing this one on his own.  Fine by me.  (Ah... those teenage mome

nts come rushing back... "Fine then.  Be like that.  See if I care!")  He's nothing if not determined.  There goes the roller coaster of emotion again.  After worrying, fretting and analyzing for the past week and a half, I was almost giddy with relief when walking away from the home.  You would think I would be used to these up and downs of dads recovery, having gone through it how many times?!  But nope... each time is like the first time.  Dare I say it... here's hoping there are smooth roads ahead for a while.
