COMING HOME AT LAST!

HALLELUJAH!! We have been moving this week toward "DISCHARGE PLANNING" and he is scheduled to come home Friday afternoon!! If all goes as planned-- He is SO ready, has taken great strides in wellness this past week, even since Sunday, and is off all iv's, oxygen, walked 400 ft. around the halls twice day before yesterday and will probably walk more today, using his walker but quite sturdy..they tested him for "independence" with getting out of bed, getting around, brushing his teeth etc. etc. and he passed with flying colors, so now insurance won't accept him for rehab, and he probably doesn't need it as he can get "strong" on his own, and be back in the house-so much better, and eating my good cooking! So we are all a little nervous, but ready, and it does not seem too daunting, although I am sure there are tough steps ahead-still faces full surgery to close/section his bowel and GET rid of the ostomy bag! And he is still to go to dialysis clinic 3 times a week, which I greatly hope disappears SOON--he LOOKS normal, eats well and is rather BORED-they pretty much leave him alone now as there are so many other sicker people. SO LIFE MOVES on, and I shall probably pick him up tomorrow afternoon. HURRAY and good cheer!
Thinking of all-
