Last week we were able to bring my dad home for the home evaluation. They Hospital wanted him to come to his house to see what we needed to fix before he came home. He was able to come and walk through his home for an hour. And let me tell ya it made a total differences in him. 
When we got to the house he wanted to walk up on his own and go up the stairs. He did wonderful, for his first time going up them i think it was great! After we got into the house ALL on his OWN he walked 8 steps. Without a walker also. I about died.! He was able to go to his bedroom and just lay on his bed. IT made him feel so much better. They told us that the only thing we would have to do it get swing away doors. THAT'S all.:) I was shocked cause i knew we would need to do a lot more. Luckily it was just that. We got some more tips on how to get him up and around. It was a great learning thing for us as well as my dad.
When it was time to go home, my dad wasn't ready to leave at all. But he knew what he need to work on before he came home for good. The last week he was up at the U he worked his BUTT off to get everything where he needed it.
I know my dad was really happy to be back to the house he hasn't seen for 3 mouths. It was amazing to have him back, even just for an hour. It was so excited to us cause we knew he was coming home SOON :)
He is just so handsome! I love him!
