Home Sweet Home
Today, after 31 days in the hospital. I was supposed to be released yesterday but insurance aprovals for home meds/supplies got in the way. It wasn’t too bad though because the last three nights I have actually been getting close to eight hours of sleep. Still, it feels incredibly good to be home and in my own bed. I still have 4-6 weeks of recovery until my wounds heal and I am able to work full time agian. Fortunately I may be able to begin working from home on a more part time basis earlier than that.
I returned home, IV free and with only a very light MED-VAC to carry. I also have no less than 12 meds/vitamin/suppliments that I need to stay on top of. I will be visited by a home care nurse three times a week to change dressings and do blood work. It beats a whacked out airbed and ten IVs by miles.
I am still at a loss as to what to say about this ongoing experience so I may start a new category for posts related to fighting the good fight.
One thing I am clear about what I want to say is a huge THANK YOU to all the kind nurses and doctors that tended to me during my stay at Swedish.
