She's Home!

They kicked her out around 4:15pm yesterday! Yeah, Mom!

She looked like they told her she had won and Academy Award, awestruck, incomprehensive, then scared. But, she was very brave and let them discharge her. We changed her, had her drain pulled, her IV block pulled, got paperwork, etc, etc. and made it out! One pit stop to get her meds along Route 1 then up to home!

Stan had mowed the lawn and washed the floor and the house looked great...she really likes a tidy house, so that was fantastic. We mentally went through a day to see where the great problem areas are going to be. Biggest two hurdles are the dog in the morning and going down the stairs in the morning. So, devised a system with Stan and we'll find out in a little bit if it worked and she made it down the stairs without falling or getting knocked over by the dog. I was/am a little worried about it...

I will update again later, but feel free to call her and remind her to respect the work that was done on her body and be still and no lifting over 10 lbs or raising her arms too high. Phew.
