Discharge did not run like a finely tuned engine, but we did eventually leave at 5:30 yesterday with medical supplies for caring for the central line, IV meds, and IV pole. The drive was fine. 94 and 69 were clear, and the other roads were snow covered but not a problem. The home nurse was here in the first 5 minutes we were home, and Anne and George were here to greet us, help unload everything, had shoveled the sidewalk, and to help Ron get in the house safely. He is using the walker again to be safe while he rebuilds some strength. No falls allowed!!
A nurse has come today to check him and help make arrangements to monitor his blood sugar. Did I say that it is great to be home?!?!? The lake is a winter wonderland...just beautiful. We stayed home today although Ron had made a list of errands to run in Coldwater. I put the kibosh on that. He will need to stay low-key for awhile giving his body time to heal and to get over the staph infection in his lungs. I think he has more energy today than I do.
It was great sleeping in our new bed.
Love to all, Ron & Jan
