Iris, thank you for your suggestion. Linda is scheduled to be discharged from the rehab facility and will be coming home on Monday, the 15th. She also has an appointment with her orthopedic surgeon this coming Thursday morning. I'm thinking that we will know what he is planning to do about her left arm after that appointment. I plan on updating her gofundme account later in the day. Once she is home she will have a caseworker, PT and OT for a period of time. Right now, I think everything will hinge on what her surgeon wants to do.
