In a word.....

Home.

Pattie is home. Went into the hospital on June 15. Finally discharged on July 28.

See the previous blog for an update on how we were going to make it home. And it's a good thing we did bring the truck. Man, did we have it loaded.

We were supposed to leave by 10:00-10:30 but the medical equipment place providing Pattie all the assistance aids failed us. They brought all we needed except one seat cushion for her wheel-chair. So there we sat in the hospital waiting for a seat cushion for an hour and a half. Finally we get it and we load up.

And as we pull out of the parking lot to head home.... it starts to rain. Good thing Pattie reminded Ted to bring the tarp. So Ted puts on the tarp and we head home. Add the rainy start to the late start and we try not to think of what else could go wrong, but nope. The trip went great.

Too bad we didn't bring some of that cool rainy weather Dallas is enjoying down to 100 degree - severe drought stricken - San Antonio.

But we made the trip home in six hours. Stopping three times to get out and stretch.

Pattie is already set for the next phase. Her first appointment with Warm Springs Rehabilitation is tomorrow.
