Subject: [Cro Dreoilin] An update on what I've been up to -- the brakes on my father's Yukon failed.....<br>

<div id="AOLMsgPart_2_f6488500-a414-4f8b-baa1-ff4bfa837ca1">
Here is an update on what I've been up to lately....<br>
<br>
On Aug. 8th, the brakes on my father's Yukon failed as he was approaching
traffic stopped at a red-light, in Cheyenne, Wyo. Realizing
that the Yukon could easily maim or even kill someone in one or the cars,
he decided to hit the semi that was also at the light. Needless to
say, to Yukon is totaled!<br>
<br>
Now for the GOOD news - Dad's only injury is a "Plateau
fracture" of his left tibia (leg/shin bone). So after a
"24hr observation" hospital stay, he was able to come
home.<br>
Now for the bad news - he can not put Any weight on his left leg.
This means that he's using a walker to get around the house, that is when
he's got enough strength - the rest of the time - I'm holding him up from
behind, or pulling him up to sitting &/or onto the bed so he can lie
down.<br>
<br>
So, as he gets stronger, Mom & I are getting weaker! Mom is
having to do not only all of her chores, she's now having to do most of
Dad's. I'm doing as many as I can, as-well-as being his "home
health aide".<br>
