This morning, I dropped mom off at the hospital and came back to the house to pack. Mom and dad are trying to get through the last hoops so they can check out, while Ashleigh and I pack. The bikes are loaded, things are ready to roll, and now we are waiting for a call to head to the hospital.
We can’t safely leave the car in the garage at the hospital with bikes on it, as bike theft is too big a risk. We’ll swoop in and pick then up, and then head for home.
This morning dad made it up an entire flight of stairs. It took a lot out of him, but having made it was a really big achievement.
Update: Mom just called to let me know we’re shooting for a 2:30 departure from the hospital.
