Home, at last

Joe was released from the hospital yesterday afternoon - it was nice to get him home and see him comfortable in the living room instead of the hospital bed. While it was tough to get him in the house, he's here - that's all that matters!

The lifetime home health nurse came by today to reinstate Joe - we won't have the morning nursing staff until Monday at the earliest - but Phyllis has been a wonderful help for us and great for Joe.

Joe is resting comfortably here - we're battling a few issues like the fluid in his legs and arms - but so far, so good. He gets easily unfocused, so I am going to keep visitors at only a couple at a time- too much activity gets him fairly agitated.

Thanks for all your well wishes - - - this journey that we're on has had mostly uphill climbs, but throughout it all we have had an unending pool of support from so many of you....and unconditional love and acceptance. For that, I will always be eternally grateful.

We're taking one day at a time.

Love,
Vicki, Gina & Tom

PS - double congrats to Tom & Steve this week as they got inducted into NHS AND made the varsity basketball team. Way to go guys!
