After months & months of recovering from Guillain Barre Syndrome, I finally got some relief. Social Development has approved me to get a wheelchair, commode, shower transfer bench & shower bars. Finally!!! Some good news!! Some stress is off my shoulders wondering how this is all going to work out considering my discharge date is May 15th. Day 275 Guillain Barre Syndrome and something going my way for once. It’s a good day.
Today is officially 9 months now I’ve been in hospital/rehab. August 1, 2019 seems so long ago now.
This provides some relief off my shoulders but more things are still needed to get me home. Unfortunately the stair lift, ramp and small bathroom modification they won’t cover to get me home and make it wheelchair accessible for me. I’m definitely glad some of the stuff is covered as just the equipment alone is near $20,000. The stair lift is not covered and that’s $4,100 and the bathroom modification I’m not sure on cost as I’ve not been able to get an estimate yet.
I’m greatful for the help from social development for the equipment. Now I just need to figure out the rest as I only maybe have 14 days left here.
If anyone would like to help I do have a GoFundMe page. Any help and share would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! http://gf.me/u/xcvvzr
