Mom's Home - Dad's Happy!


Well after a long day of waiting for doctors to release mom, she finally left Winchester Medical Center this afternoon. Lexy and I went to Rehab early and had breakfast with dad and took him to Saturday therapy. Then we headed to Winchester to wait for mom to be released. She wasn't released until after 3:30 - so my sister Pam came up to get her while we headed to our afternoon ballgames. Pam and mom got to dad's room around 5pm and he was so very happy to see her. He told me he wasn't going to let her go for awhile - can you see his arm around her in the picture. He's got his girl back!

They are planning to go to church in the morning to praise God for this week of victory in therapy - and blessing with mom getting better and returning home. Dad was feeling a little "woosy" this afternoon - but he had a flu shot Thursday and that's probably the culprit they said. He told us that nothing would keep him from going to church tomorrow! We pray tonight he is up to the trip out tomorrow morning for second service with mom!

Thanks for all of your prayers - we love you all. (By the way, mom will be scheduled for a stress test at the end of the week and then return to see her heart doctor in 2 weeks for a followup and instructions. We will be keeping close eyes on her the next week - staying with her and driving her where ever she needs to go. We need to pray for her to keep her "stress" level low!)
