Two go home
Very happy to say that my dad was released from the hospital on Tuesday, and I drove back here that same day. He has an RN visiting him for several hours daily (or as needed) for two weeks at home to make sure his vitals are good, the incision is healing properly, and his recovery is progressing. His surgeons were amazed at his determination and positive thinking and said that he is a young 86 year old! The whole experience left me appreciative of all the years my folks have had together (their 63rd Wedding Anniv. was two days before his surgery), but has also made me think more about the inevitable loss of parents.
Good to be home, and when it stops raining I will re-commence my gardening!!

Thanks Carol. I was finally able to log back in. I’m happy your Dad is home and improving. I know what you mean about inevitable loss. I see my parents and in-laws getting more forgetful, frail and constantly going to the Dr. My in-laws are beginning to enjoy Morningside.
