Billy, I have included this Link to New Jersey's Centers for Independent Living. There are more then a dozen in your State, beginning with Edison. _CIL's located in the state of NJ_ (http://www.virtualcil.net/cils/query-iandr.php?state=nj) Call the closest in your area to serve you with information and resources. I'm sure the Discharge Planners at Kessler Rehab Center may also be aware of your closest CIL. Best Wishes In a message dated 3/17/2013 2:53:31 P.M. Central Daylight Time, blan...@verizon.net writes:
Monmouth County NJ, thanks Sent from Billy's IPAD2 On Mar 17, 2013, at 12:38, _wheelchair@aol.com_ (mailto:wheelch...@aol.com) wrote: Congrats Billy! You have done both good and well in raising your daughter and the grandchildren. Thanks to computers, and cell phones you will always be in contact with them and watch them grow. I'm sure you have a Federally Funded, Center For Independent Living in or near your community to guide you in your search for information, as it may vary from state to state. What State and County do you reside? Best Wishes In a message dated 3/17/2013 11:05:06 A.M.

We're going to miss them terribly. I have been Connor's male influence for 5 of his seven years, and my heart is breaking to see him go. Anyway, I am 64 and My wife my primary caregiver for 23 years is 65. She can't physically take care of me anymore. (Transfers mainly). How do we go about getting an aide in home? Who pays, and what is the going rate? I have nurses in the morning who do ADL, BP and cath care. That's done in about an hour every day. The need is needed when I go back down in the evening or during the day, if necessary. Thanks for any advice you can offer. Sent from Billy Lang's iPad
