I know how tough it must be. Unfortunate the patient tends to listen to the doctor, nurses and Rehab Therapist more than the family who is taking care of the patient. When Rodney goes to therapy, perhaps you can tell the therapist so that he/she can reinforce the need for him to listen to you. Everyday, he must work hard to get better and heal. My heart really goes out to you. Don't get discouraged. Persevere and never give up. In the end it will be worth all the hard work!
I know it must be hard since you have to return to work. Is Rodney able to manage with you gone for so long? What about his father? Can he help? The pressure you must be feeling must be so awful. Please don't stress too much or you will get sick yourself!!!
As for me, each day I am doing better and better. I am starting to write again but it does take me longer. I now am limiting my time on Steemit to every other day. I missed my contact with you and some other Steemians so it is good to at least be able to reconnect. Please take care and don't get sick! You have to take care of yourself before you can help Rodney! My thoughts and prayers are with you each day! Keeping being positive and keep writing when you have the time. It is a really good outlet!!! :D
