Anyone up for a Super Bowl Party

Mother is back to herself, maybe sometime even when she didn't think so. Us kids and grandkids did not think we were going to or even should have a Super Bowl party at Mom and Dad's house. Mother said sure why not, and then Dad went out and bought tons of party snacks, everything for the big party. The one thing that mother says that is difficult about being home is the bed and sleeping. Although that wasn't a change because she was not able to sleep comfortably in the hospital bed either. So it is time to bring in the big guns and get her a bed that will allow her to get a goodnight sleep. We are going to try everything just short of buying a sleep number. Mother still has to keep her feet elevated when sleeping and also she should be raised at the head for about 30 degrees. So we are bringing over the hospital bed and will fix it up to be comfortable. Today is the Super Bowl we will she how she does with all the grandkids. They might have to play outside all the time.
We will most likely only be giving a updat every two to three days from here on out.

Home

Well, today was the day to finally be allowed to go home. It took a while to get released from the hospital. Mom had to be seen by all of the Doctors and get their O.K. to be released. They said she could go home in the morning, but it wasn't until 4 pm in the afternoon that Dad and her finally were allowed to leave. Dad and Mom left with a list of medicines that she needs to take, and exercises she needs to do. Mari Mar, Chad and their boys came over and brought some chicken soup and cream vegetables (with no salt) and her favorite dessert right now sherbert ice cream (she has a special diet now) . Mom looked very comfortable sitting in her recliner watching T.V. that afternoon. Dad has to help her get up to do anything, and they both look like their helping each other to get up. They could still use visitors so if you have time fill free to stop on by and say hi.

Homeward Bound

Yes it is correct mother was released from the hospital this afternoon. She was very greatful to be home, be able to relax without all the interuptions. Now we just need to make the home life to be very relaxing so she can continue the recovery process.
Talking to mother over the phone you would not guess as to what she just went through, if you didn't know already. You also wouldn't even know that she was laying down and not getting up and doing the usuall. She continues to grow stronger and stronger each and every day.
