It's true. Susan is home. With meds and juices and a watermelon chilling. Janie brought tomatoes and corn, and a special pillow for Susan.
It's a difficult transition, to know how to be comfortable, when nothing really appeals to you to eat or drink, you have no energy to do anything beyond lying down, sleeping, sitting up, sleeping, taking medicine, sleeping, or walking around a hospital floor... But here you are -- an entire house, home, with mail and kitties and computers... and all you want to do is sleep, except you're tired of sleeping, and too uncomfortable to sit up. Day by day, we'll find distractions that get her through the day, until she has energy to pick and choose what she does.
There will be lots of napping, and I will have to resume some sort of work schedule, so visits are welcome (especially when I've got to be gone -- I hate to leave her alone -- especially Tuesdays and Thursdays, late morning to early afternoon. ) Home is 929-1213 Her cell is 698-5645.
We'll make it through this transition period, in time for me to have my knee surgery in August ! Geez!
Thanks for your help and good wishes.
