Trilogy 100 Plug Adapter Issue and Cigarette Lighter Adapter Workaround
March 14, 2011 by Bill Strong We had a pretty scary experience with Gwendolyn's Trilogy 100 bipap while on vacation in San Diego. Gwendolyn has been using the Trilogy for about 9 months now and we absolutely love it. We've had no problems with the machine and we haven't found anything negative about the machine -- nothing at...

We're Home: Trip Recap
July 18, 2009 by Victoria We're home and the old adage is true, there is no place like home (a full size shower feels like such a luxury). But, we are also sad to see this trip come to an end. While we knew this journey was going to be special, it has been more than we could have ever imagined. We have had experiences with... Read More >>How We Made This Trip Work
July 18, 2009 by Bill Strong
We've found doing anything outside of our home with Gwendolyn to be challenging. Her machines, the power issues, being outside of our comfort zone, having no night nurse, the change in schedule, exposure to viruses, the added stress, etc. But, we also know how much Gwendolyn enjoys getting out and...

Acts of Kindness: LifeCare Solutions
July 17, 2009 by Bill Strong We'd like to thank our home healthcare provider, LifeCare Solutions, for being unbelievably proactively supportive of our cross-country RV trip with Gwendolyn.

July 06, 2009 by Victoria
I would be lying if I didn't admit that I am thoroughly depressed after leaving Harry. I always feel this way after leaving him, although this time it is worse. He is truly remarkable. And I adore him. He has been an enormous influence in my life and I know I am fortunate for that.
We had a...
