Dan's wheelchair has not been able to fit in our bathroom and he's been home a little over 7 weeks now, so Dan has had to take sponge baths and use a commode (not fun!).
Well, last weekend, the children and Jo Ann went to Office Max and bought an office chair that has wheels. Now Dan can transfer to that chair from his wheelchair and get into the bathroom and do things we all take for granted.
We also bought a bath stool that goes right in the tub so Dan can take showers!
Today, Dan got to take a shower at home -- 12/14/05.
Yeah!
This is the Schneider-Farris Family's Blog. Keep up with what we are doing by logging into this site regularly! (The reason this site is called "Tragedy and Triumph" is that when I first founded this site, my husband, Dan, had been in a horrible accident, and he recovered. His recovery was a miracle! Go back to the 2005 archives to read our story.)
