The car was going northbound on this road just north of Challis, Idaho, when it went down the embankment on the left side of the picture.
Car vs. tree.
The car impacted this tree and then flipped over its hood, landing on its side facing backward against some other trees.
Miracle
This is a photo of the front passenger side of the Camry after the accident. We're so lucky to have my mom.

The bumper was put on the hood for towing purposes.
A good Toyota ad
Despite all the damage on the other side of the car, the driver's side was relatively intact. Thanks to the designers at Toyota, my dad is here to support my mom.

This was the helo that took my mom from the site to this hospital in Idaho Falls, about 150 miles away.

I am not sure how the home health program would work once she is in Roseville, but it seems like Janet should be able to get a nurse coming to the house for that if the doctor prescribes it. If not, private home health services have nurses qualified for that.
Of course, each community is different, so the Roseville folks can be of most help to you, I expect, in figuring it out.

Jill,
My co-worker at Kaiser (where I work) said that her daughter (a Medical Assistant for 20 years)has done injections her entire career. Marta is going to ask her daughter, Cat, if she would do this for you guys. She thinks she will. She does want to know where the injections would be (IM, etc.), what times she needs the injections and what type of medication it is. If you could get that for me, I will have a response from Cat tomorrow (after Marta talks to her).
the injections must be fragmin or lovenox- sort of a cousin to heparin. The syringes are usually preloaded and super easy to administer-they practically give themselves. the needles are super tiny (smaller than insulin shots) and it is usually given in the belly (subcutaneous). super easy! Hope that helps anyone considering doing this. Wish I were closer and I could just do it! Hang in there Janet, sounds like you are a super star.

Janet,
I hear you may be leaving Idaho tomorrow and coming home to Roseville. Good luck, and I hope it's a comfortable trip for you! I assume Brian and others will be following your vehicle - good luck traveling, to them, as well!
Looking forward to seeing you very soon.Love, Lesley Fujii
Here's a possible avenue of help. A woman I have coached who has come to my retreats for years is an RN and Home Health nurse and now lives in Roseville. Her name is Rose Allen, and her home phone is 916-772-5353. I'm not sure if she's currently working or retired, but she is someone I'd trust with my life, and she could give you a great recommendation or solid advice if she can't do it. I will e-mail her and let her know she might hear from you all. Good luck! Love, Carolyn
