The Dan Ryan & Bishop Ford (I-94) expressways are totally shut down on the southbound side with like ten police cars at every ramp where you can get on. The northbound side is a mess too so I got off & wandered around through the city to get up here the rest of the way.
Stupidfux are everywhere.
"Derrrrr the light is green, what do I do?"
"Derrrrrr I think 15 mph is plenty fast enough for this 35 zone with no traffic in front of me for the next 3 blocks"
"Deerrrrrrrrrrrrr I think the middle of this street is a good place to park my lowered Homie G-ride. I'll just leave the 4 ways on, it be coo"
"Derrrrrrp... I think I'll just park my crew cab long bed dually right in this compact car space right at the end of the row in the parking garage so every single car trying to get through here has to maneuver back & forth for 5 minutes to get around it"....
I'm getting tired of this city.

Every major city in the USA sucks for traffic. But Chicago is the third largest city in the country.

Looking down from Sarah's room at the intersection of Harrison & Paulina. Camera angle is southeast.
About every ten minutes somebody lays on the horn.
The last time, it was a car that was northbound on Paulina, turning left onto Harrison, stopped halfway through the turn, blowing the horn for 5 continuous seconds at an elderly man pushing an elderly woman across the street in a hospital transport wheelchair, in the crosswalk, with the walk signal.
Some people simply need to be beaten to death.

Tonight's update:
Speech is so good she might not even need much speech therapy.
She grabbed my wrist with her weak arm and lifted the entire weight of my arm, unassisted. And I have big arms.
She can raise her knee to her chest.
Temps are normal.
BP is still low, but gradually trending upwards.
She can almost use her phone's touch screen with her right hand, holding it with her left, but her fingernails get in the way. I'll bring nail clippers tomorrow.
Using the bedside commode, it takes minimal effort to get her up & turned around. The biggest hassle is dealing with the wires that are connected to her.

Some people need to go in for the ol' snip, snip. That's right the clipping of the wires to their horn and a vasectomy couldn't hurt either.Looking down from Sarah's room at the intersection of Harrison Paulina. Camera angle is southeast.

Seriously it is a hospital zone.
(shit they got an emoji for almost everything)Some people are just ignorant they will pull their car up to an apartment building or house and blow the horn to let the person they are picking up that they are there. Lazy coconuts!
The whole fucking neighborhood doesn't need to know you are outside.
I am not sure if they are forklift drivers by day or foreigners or both. They blow the horn when they are passing. They blow the horn at red lights, they blow the horn even when no one is even near them. ( I only said foreigners because in some countries they use the horn very liberally)
As far as I am concerned these people demonstrating immoderate horn usage can blow my horn.

Around here there used to be nice stretches of interstate between blobs of shittiness, but it seems to all be blending together into one giant turd.

Today the Rush Social Worker said the doctors assessed her and recommended "sub-acute" rehab.
Meaning another shitty nursing home type facility with a quarantine to punish the unvacccinated, with inattentive, short staffed, rookie "on the job trained" CNAs, and only an hour a day of therapy.
They did however, put in a request for the Riverside program but as of 5 pm they hadn't heard back from there.
If Riverside declines, Rush's acute rehab is an option I think.
But I'm going to probably snap on somebody & demand they put some pressure on Riverside (she is currently in better condition than when she entered Riverside's program the first time). But if we're stuck with Rush's program, I'm going to demand they comp my parking ($20 a day) and give me some kind of prepaid visa for gas or something. I'm driving 100 miles a day in a 22 year old minivan that gets 21 mpg. Because of their fuckup.
I am NOT putting her back in another quarantine shithole. At this point though she's improving physically and neurologically, her mental health can't take another bullshit quarantine. She cries every day when visitor hours are over and the nurse tells me to leave.
Rush's screw-up caused her to bomb out of the Riverside rehab program, an extra MONTH of hospitalization, two near-death events, and the mental anguish of 8 days of quarantine.
Every day, commuting to Chicago and back, I drive past multiple law firm billboards that say "Medical malpractice? Nursing home injury? Call us".
I'm going to mention that to whomever I end up talking to tomorrow if they can't get her back into the Riverside program.
I'll say "maybe that law firm can tell me how to at least get my parking comped and my gas paid for".

Assuming that you are still working through all of this, is it possible to get her home with partial day nursing care?
And yes, I would be looking at telling the complete story to a competent lawyer. If you have Morgan & Morgan, P.A. up there, I highly recommend them.

Personally, I wouldn't mention anything about seeking legal representation to any staff. That can be determined as a threat and you may just get pushed out at the head of the line. People interpret things differently and some ass will think it's all about the money.
