Update on Jim Robinson's health issues

Posted on 10/30/2023 10:11:14 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

Spent the entire month of June in the va hospital. Again (second year in a row). And then 4 1/2 months in a skilled nursing rehab facility. Solved some of the medical issues but I'm still under the weather. Arms and hands still extremely weak. Still in bed for most of my time. Still can't sit in my powerchair very long. Still can't feed myself, etc. Still can't type. Still using voice recognition software to enter posts, etc. Very slow.

Our big problem right now is Chris is overwhelmed and stressed out. We're now looking for a full-time, live-in 24/7 caregiver. We can offer a salary plus room and board to the right person.

So basically, I've been in bed now for a year and a half And I've lost most of my strength. It's gonna take a lot of therapy To get me back on my feet. Still praying for miracles.

Thank you all very much for your continuing prayers and support. God bless.

Yes we have a hoyer lift. Chris uses it to get me in or out of bed or powerchair etc. The turning I was talking about earlier, was just rolling me over from one side to the other in bed. that’s usually just a one person task, but sometimes two girls would work in a team. Unfortunately, my trunk muscles are also gone, due to muscular dystrophy, so I can’t do it myself.

Deeply saddened to read boss. My hope is for a 24 hour caregiver for you. You deserve so much more though.

I along with many others will be praying for you Jim. Not just for your health, but that you find the right person to come help you. You’re an amazing man that many greatly admire. Stay strong and keep the faith. Highest regards to Chris as well.
