Albertville, AL
Mom was strong enough yesterday that they released her from the hospital and moved her to a rehabilitation facility for (theoretically) a few weeks to get her strength back. I say "theoretically" because the time limit isn't important if she's making progress and, conversely, she won't stay there if she doesn't cooperate. We're hopeful that she'll get back on her feet over the next few weeks.
The facility is a relatively new place and seems very professional. The down-side is that it's in Gadsden, about 25 miles away (the hospital she was in was about 10 miles from home). They're much more limiting on visiting hours during the week, as they need most of the day for the physical therapy (about 5 hours a day). We'll visit her today (Sunday is a "free day") and tomorrow evening.
Our current plan is to head out on Tuesday, which was our original schedule. I'll post more details on the plans for the next few weeks in a subsequent entry.
