I am so sorry to hear what happenned to your Dad. Sometimes people seem to recover well from the most horrible head injuries. In the meantime it will be alot of stress that you don't need. Don't be too proud to ask for help!

Do you have any brothers or sisters?

Your parents home could be made "friendly" - a stair lift for the stairs up to the bedroom and bathroom and what about the washing machine and drier being shifted to the kitchen?

Please keep us posted. Hugs

Thanks for the well wishes. I do have 3 brothers, but they live 4 hours away and have full-time jobs that keep them from helping over the weeks. They will be home on weekends, but I don't know how long that will last. It will be left up to me to take care of them, but I don't have any problems with this. My worry about the house is that the temptation for him to go up or down the stairs is great and I don't know how my mom will deal with that. He was much better last night and was joking around and knew who people were and what day it was. The PT is working with him on how to get out of bed safely, walk by himself, etc. Once he leaves the general floor which he is going to today, he has been accepted to the in-house rehab program. That will give the family some time to get things ready for him to come home. Having been through a moderate head injury, I can at least relate to some of the things he is going through. Again, thanks for the support.
