There's No Place Like Home

Mom was still sore today from her new catheter, but she came home anyway! YEA!!! We went over tonight to flush her lines, get her into some comfortable pajamas, and just talk. I love it that she is home.

Maybe tomorrow we can get her on the deck to see her sunflowers:

It felt so funny to be able to just walk out of there with her today. She was admitted on June 26th, so she was only a few days shy of a month’s stay. Since she could only walk the halls, and she only did that twice, it was almost like she was a prisoner. Granted the nurses and techs were great and she received loads of attention, still, it was like prison. I’m sure anyone who has been in this situation can relate.

She has an appointment to see her doctor on Monday. Until then, we will take it day by day flushing her lines, draining the Denver Catheter, giving her meds, and taking her temperature.

I look forward to spending more time with her.

These are the earrings I mentioned a few days ago that I have wanted since Mother’s Day:

I tried taking pictures with them in my ears, but the quality wasn’t there and you couldn’t see any detail.

Yeah!!! I am so happy and I know that you all are too. She will feel so much better being at home. Give her my love and let her know that I say a prayer everyday for her.

I'm so pleased to hear that your mum is now home. It doesn't matter how ill someone feels they always perk up when at home.

Your earrings are lovely. I have a gypsy bracelet that has fairies on it just like those :)

I'm so glad Sharon is home. Praise God! I can't even imagine what it would be like to be in the hospital for almost a month. She must be so happy and relieved to be home. I hope and pray she gets stronger and feels better every day.

Very cool earrings, by the way.
