Discharged!

Both of our old school Family Practice physician fathers would not approve of the large variety of doctors we have seen while we have been inpatient.  We are waiting on our third "hospitalist" to sign the last of the papers so we can get out.


The transfusion went fine last night and MA has a little more strength today.  She's sitting on the edge of the bed knitting.  I have already made 4 trips to the car (two just for flowers) and we're packed except for computers and yarn.  We've got home health orders and will have the PT, OT and nurse at the apartment periodically starting tomorrow.


Mary Anne is still having muscle spasms and some pain with movement, but it's a very different pain.  The orthopedist (surgeon's partner) says that it's par for the course and will subside as she works through the new internal arrangement of bones, etc.


All in all, we're doing well and extremely glad to be headed back to the apartment and the terriers.  Updates will be less frequent, but I'll let everyone know how the home therapy progressed.


Please know how much we have felt the prayers and the love of all of our family and friends.  As they used to say at Bartles and James, thank you for your support. 


P.S.  Update as I finish - we've gotten the last of our D/C orders and will be headed out very soon
