Dad got home at about 5pm yesterday..still getting settled and trying to get in to a routine, but night one went ok. Dad had a lot of leg pain again and was pretty restless most of the night, but he ate great today. I'm glad he is home - after a month in the hospital, just being in your own home can make such a difference in the healing process. The goal will be to keep Dad comfortable, control pain as much as possible and begin to work on building back some strength. As always thank you for everything...as I organized Dads cards today and displayed a few on the mantel for him to look at, it reminded me again what an amazing support system Mom and Dad have. They are truly so so lucky and we couldn't get through this without all of you.
Dad enjoys visits and he could really use the continued positive encouragement - if you would like to visit, maybe give them a call at home to make sure it's a good time (618.526.4991).
Thanks again
