John’s insurance has approved 20 days in VIBRA Specialty Hospital in Portland Oregon. The facility focuses on vent weening and rehabilitation. We are planning to take him there tomorrow. We hope that if his time there is productive, the insurance  will  approve more time at VIBRA. John has had two trips in the van so far. One trip to his pulminologist in Corvallis and  one to his general practitioner in Depot Bay. These appointments were necessary before he could be accepted at VIBRA. We did finally get an in-home wound care vac approved & set up and hope that VIBRA is able to continue with one.  We have kept John healthy here at home, but are looking forward to the possibility of vent weening and more PT, OT, Speech therapy, and emotional support.

    How did the trip go? Did you go via ambulance or the van? Getting settled in at the hospital ? I’m happy to see you at the hospital and hope the therapy helps. Love Dad
