Home.

The doctor decided yesterday that I had reached the point in recovery where the thing I needed most was rest. If you’ve ever spent the night in the hospital, you know just how hard it is to get rest there – the noises in the hallway, the people coming in and out to give you meds and to draw blood at 5am and everything else … you just don’t get to sleep. So we waited until I was feeling up to it, and we made sure that the new pain meds were ok (I’ve gotten sick from some in the past and didn’t want to have to deal with that after we left), and once everything checked out we headed for home.
It was nice to get 10 mostly uninterrupted hours of sleep in my own bed last night. I feel soooo much better today.
Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone for all of your well wishes. I’m having to limit computer time over the next few days, but I hope to write everyone directly soon. Your support truly means a lot to me!

Glad to hear that it went well and you’re feeling better.
I had a little chuckle when I saw the photo – it’s hard to rest at the hospital, but very easy to rest watching a drama about a hospital!

Glad you are home and sleeping in your own bed. I know how hard it is to sleep in the hospital, you’d think they’d have come up with a solution to that by now! Take care and have a peaceful and happy thanksgiving!

I’m glad you are somewhat back to normal.
I followed your blog quite religiously for a good while, then fell out of the blogosphere for a good…year almost. On a lark, came back to check your site again and noticed all your health problems, and was shocked.
I hope you recover fully and I hope that your problems disappear, I know what it’s like to deal with a problem for a long time, you just want it gone.
