Update: care team

I just spoke with Michelle from Kathie's rehab care team. Her current issues are left side neglect (she forgets things on or ignores her left side). Balance issues. Attention and endurance. She is slower to react and the concern is with balance issues and delayed reaction, she will fall. She walked 15O feet with her walker today!
So the big question had been when will she be home. Michelle said two more weeks. September 22 or around there. They will bring her out next week for a home visit to see how she does here and what modifications she may need made here. I told her we will do whatever we can to get her home. 
I will have to bring her to therapy three times a week, once she's home. No idea how long, that depends on her progress. 

I asked about bringing her out to lunch this weekend. That's a possibility, I just have to go out and do a training session on how to transfer and assist her into the van.
