102 #19
The Cook drain came out today - sooo only one drain left in the belly. And she's practicing stairs and walking like a pro - both in the hospital and outside - very glad she got to experience some glorious Calgary fall weather. I took real clothes in yesterday and she said it felt so good to be wandering around in pants and a sweatshirt!! (although they're frightfully baggy) Dr Temple (with a grin) asked her this morning - When do you think you should go home? And Linda's response was 'Friday'. And he said - Well that sounds possible. WHEW!!!!! We can hardly believe that we're starting to plan for our escape. We're thinking we'll stay in Calgary at Tracy's for the weekend (just to let her get her land legs) and then fly home on Monday - a week today. Cath (one of our Angels) has volunteered to drive the truck and the pooches home that day. Can you believe this part of the journey is almost over?

ReplyDeleteLinda & Lorraine, That most certainly is TERRIFIC NEWS!!!! I am sure you both can hardly wait to get back to your home and your family and friends. I have really come to understand and believe in the strength of prayer as you both are proof of that. It is truly amazing what a collective group can do in praying for the health of a friend.
