A SAINT GETS A TASTE OF PURGATORY

My Sainted Mother has had to deal with some unpleasant roommates and various other challenges during her first two weeks in rehab. Fortunately, the staff and management at the Alamitos Belmont rehab hospital have responded rapidly and professionally to correct all problems, and Mom is now progressing very well indeed.

Physical therapy is going particularly well, especially compared to the less-than-satisfactory experience she had last time. This facility has excellent equipment and a permanent resident staff, so therapy is consistent and additive. And they took the time to review Mom's program with her so that she could fully participate.

I helpfully suggested playing the theme music from "Rocky" during her sessions, like our high school coaches did for us in the football weight room, but Mom has learned to ignore this kind of "help" from me.

Her surgeon is very pleased with her progress, and barring any unforeseen complications, she'll be home just before Christmas.

Like I said before - jigs & reels.
