Well, I’m learning! On several fronts at once! Based on a few factors, this college move-in season I was uninvited from the party, and willingly so! Last time I did this (my oldest moved in three years ago) I’m not sure I was as helpful as I could have been, and given my left handedness now, I’d be useless in the face of the evil Ikea! Truthfully, I’m not sure I could think of...]]></description><link>https://www.livinganyways.org/post/epic-self-reliance</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a9f62ab5bf065f25f4d74b5</guid><category><![CDATA[Follow Our Adventure]]></category><pubDate>Tue, 08 Sep 2026 01:49:40 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/a9870b_7569dfa5819b4eae83b9ea9b9b3ee956~mv2.jpeg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>wworthington3</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reconnecting Neurons]]></title><description><![CDATA[Day 5: I continue to document Roger’s progress not only to share his journey with those that want to follow along, but to also preserve this story for him when he is ready to see it. I know that there will be challenging times ahead when he is frustrated by his disabilities and lack of progress. Hopefully this journal will help remind him of where he started and how much he has achieved one day at a time. Today brought a few important milestones: Roger was able to walk down the hall with the...]]></description><link>https://www.livinganyways.org/post/reconnecting-neurons</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a9e0902338fe3cc70d6042b</guid><category><![CDATA[First Two Years]]></category><pubDate>Mon, 07 Sep 2026 00:51:07 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="http://video.wixstatic.com/video/a9870b_140c645f71cb4a3a836ed2c30ecd87a0/720p/mp4/file.mp4" length="0" type="video"/><dc:creator>wworthington3</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pulling Through]]></title><description><![CDATA[Day 3: What an inspirational day. Roger is such a fighter and hard worker as everyone who knows him will attest. He has made sooooo much progress in the last 12 hours. He had a routine CT scan this morning and no further bleeding. The brain swelling seems to have stabilized. Today, he has been easier to rouse. When he is awake, he is lucid and alert. He knows who we all are and where he is. What a relief to have him coming back to us. He clearly wanted to know what was happening all around...]]></description><link>https://www.livinganyways.org/post/pulling-through</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a9a0f9ae12fa7bad8b4bb51</guid><category><![CDATA[First Two Years]]></category><pubDate>Fri, 04 Sep 2026 00:57:57 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/a9870b_055918da356e4c90b554827992be22c8~mv2.jpeg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>wworthington3</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Week 1 - We Are Off!!!]]></title><description><![CDATA[Day 1: Lone Tree Campground on the John Day River, Oregon The preparations are done and we are on the road… finally. We got underway at 4pm after 100 last minute pit stops. We drove 3 hours and landed in a perfect spot!!  Wendi picked a fabulous campground on the John Day River before it meets the Columbia River.  We strolled down to the river, a sliver of its former self in the late August heat. But it was beautiful nonetheless. Something is melting off the both of us… Stress, worries, a...]]></description><link>https://www.livinganyways.org/post/week-1-we-are-off</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a8f316e6e0678c59a4fd4e9</guid><category><![CDATA[Follow Our Adventure]]></category><pubDate>Fri, 28 Aug 2026 23:18:13 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/a9870b_334d303f66214fcc9a6cf18cff79df09~mv2.jpeg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>wworthington3</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Night Everything Changed]]></title><description><![CDATA[March 29,2024 To read a a detailed account of the first few hours of Roger’s stroke, go to the “Our Story” webpage.  This entry picks that story up when we arrive at the Intensive Care Unit. The first night in the ICU was brutal. We had no idea if Roger was going to make it through the night.  We knew that he was actively bleeding deep in his basal ganglia.  This is a region that neurosurgeons do not want to venture because it would likely kill him.  So the only tool we had was to monitor his...]]></description><link>https://www.livinganyways.org/post/the-night-everything-changed</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a7ca1b9f1f88bc38bddf196</guid><category><![CDATA[First Two Years]]></category><pubDate>Wed, 12 Aug 2026 16:39:24 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/a9870b_e721c81d91884ff5ae395543edd48c89~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_605,h_732,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>wworthington3</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
