I wasn't going to post this on the forum because I tend to be a private person that way, but then I remembered all the love and support I received 9 years ago when Alyssa was born. So, I decided to come to this group once again to ask for your positive thoughts and prayers.
This past Sunday night, my father-in-law suffered a stroke affecting the right side of his body. He lost control of his arm and leg and vision in his right eye. He was finally well enough by last night to be transferred to the rehab unit at the hospital. His doctors are pretty sure that he can make a decent recovery although it might not be 100%.They are estimating 4-6 weeks of intensive therapy and then he might be able to go home.
It's a bit more complicated due to the fact that he was doing most of the work at home because my mother-in-law has Alzheimer. So, we are going to have our hands full for a while which is why I'm not cooking much these days, but will be doing a lot more once he goes home and I'm sure all of you will have plenty of ideas for me.
On a happier note, our rental property sold in two weeks and we are no longer landlords after 37 years in the business. What an incredible relief!
