Update on Jim Robinson's health issues

[Jim Robinson]

Spent the entire month of June in the va hospital. Again (second year in a row). And then 4 1/2 months in a skilled nursing rehab facility. Solved some of the medical issues but I'm still under the weather. Arms and hands still extremely weak. Still in bed for most of my time. Still can't sit in my powerchair very long. Still can't feed myself, etc. Still can't type. Still using voice recognition software to enter posts, etc. Very slow.

Our big problem right now is Chris is overwhelmed and stressed out. We're now looking for a full-time, live-in 24/7 caregiver. We can offer a salary plus room and board to the right person.

So basically, I've been in bed now for a year and a half And I've lost most of my strength. It's gonna take a lot of therapy To get me back on my feet. Still praying for miracles.

Thank you all very much for your continuing prayers and support. God bless.

Praying for you to get better, and soon! Praying for your son to hang in there - I know how tough it is to care for someone long term. Fresh air, walks and hopefully have someone who can pick up the slack here and there. Hope you’ll all be OK!

Jim, shouldn't Medicare (and any supplement insurance, which you should have) at least supply you with 90 days of paid Visiting Nurse Service care? At least as an immediate starting point?

They are not 24/7 but, if you had your doctor order PT/OT/VN care, people would be coming in and out the door to heal you within a week.

If you got a top-notch caregiver who could coordinate these visits and keep you warm and fed, etc., that would be optimal.

Would lean on my primary care physician really.damn.hard to not only order the PT/OT/VN but also to direct you to the best caregiver service providers in your Cali location.

GO NAVY!
