October update

Dee and I staying with our son Chris and his family in Hesperia, CA.  Dee recovering nicely from her hip replacement.  She is moving around well, and starting to learn how to use steps. We have to build up her muscles so we can hit the road again. We've been "dormant" on the road since mid September.  Chris n Angela have been great as well as Kaitlyn and Devin for having us at their home. Dee still has that deep vein trombosis going on, and the coumaden clinic is consistantly changing her dosage.  We hit the Naval Hospital in 29 Palms next week for some follow up and try to get stabilized.  Dee has been a real trooper through this so far. I think though, she is through with being stuck immobilized. Today, we are going to venture out for a ride to camping world, and then walk the mall in Victorville.  Best time is during the week.  Too many people during the weekend.  We did go out last week for a walk in the mall. I had forgotten how rude people are when one is disabled. When I was in my wheel chair, either from hip replacements, or broken legs, shoppers seemed to go out of their way to be rude.  Same thing happened to Dee last week.  We were in line to check out at Penney's: Dee was taking a break and sitting in her walker, when some lady just strode in front of her like she wasn't there. She was almost on top of Dee's lap. It was like a space invasion. I informed this shopper that she was being kind of rude, and she said she didn't see Dee there. Amazing!! Good for a chuckle.  Brought back memories, and I apologized to Dee for not remembering beforehand how rude people can be if one is disabled. Crazy world...Enjoy some recent pictures. Little bit of fun week before surgery.
