Don't you ever apologize for needing support and prayer or fail to tell us when something is going on! That's part of what we're here for - to help each other. I can tell you've got your plate full but hopefully mom will calm down when she sees that the stair/chairlift aid will help her and your father and make life easier. A guy like your dad seems to be probably would be far happier if you all just don't manage to get him picked up until after the crew have installed the chairlift and gone home, however late that is! It will be stressful enough for him coming home again and still not feeling his best w/out a lot of hullabaloo going on in his home, a new apparatus to learn how to operate and your mom being tense and upset trying to cope with all she's got on her hands now. Poor things - it's not easy getting old. Hugs to Andy and Harry and even bigger ones to you, Sally.
