Glad to see that he's getting up & moving. A large part of what motivated me to get better, was just to feel needed & feel as if I'm truly contributing to something again, rather than feeling like I'm being a constant burden on my family & friends.

These little things probably really matter to him - your daughter needing his time & yourself relying on his help with the car & something as seemingly minor as crushing the pills.
