April 21, 2010 - Elkins

Dad is generally settled in at Hospice Care of Randolph County, located in on Diamond Street in Elkins.
  • After a false start early in the day, Dad arrived in Elkins at about 6:00 PM, Wednesday.
  • The first transportation service didn't have the right ventilator equipment for the trip, but that problem was pretty quickly resolved by the good folks at Select Specialty Hospital - Montefiore.
  • The trip from Pittsburgh to Elkins went well, particularly in that it was uneventful. Mom rode in the ambulance (front seat) and allowed that it was a very smooth ride.
  • Hospice Care is located in a comfortable, new facility. Our first impressions are positive.
  • Friend Dave was kind to visit shortly after Dad's arrival.
  • Visiting hours at Hospice Care are not restricted - feel free to pop in anytime.
Thanks to all for your prayers, support and encouragement. Please continue to lift Dad up in prayer for a miraculous healing, as well as for him to have peace of mind in his circumstances. Also, please remember Mom and Dad that they should each have strength and peace as they face this trial.

  2. Hi Woody,
    My name is Diana Sandy & I am sending this for my sister, Anita Lopez, because she does not use the computer very often. She wanted me to let your dad know that she has him in her prayers everyday & is hoping she can find someone who can bring her up for a visit. Anita & Miles have been friends since their school days at St Marys. My prayers are also with you & your family.
