She's Home!!!!

Anita made it home on Thursday, October 21!!!  It was kind of a stressful ride home as you can guess-it seemed like the potholes and bumps in the road were all bigger on the way home.  And it was hard on me for the embarrassment of having to actually drive BELOW the speed limit.  I slinked down in the seat so no one could see me drive so slow.  It was kind of different-I actually got good gas mileage yesterday.  The van almost got stuck in the driveway from the weight of all the flowers we took home, all of which were much appreciated.

Anyway, back to Anita.  She is resting comfortably downstairs (she might be able to do stairs in a few days).  And mainly resting, watching TV, and shuffling on cane or walker for exercise.  Had some bouts of coughing yesterday, which we attribute to the scopolamine patch she had for nausea (which is now gone for the most part)., so we ditched the patch

Lana Simning came and watched over her late in the afternoon while i saw some clients, which was great, and our neighbor and long time friend Susie from down the street came after dinner for  a spell.

We are going back to see Dr. D today midday for a quick followup, so it's back on the freeway, slunk down in my seat in disguise, going 60mph again.  If you see us, please dont honk.

Sorry I missed posting yesterday, I should have another update tonight
