Default I'm Home

After 11 days in the hospital I am finally home. I am very weak but that should improve day by day. I am not allowed to do very much but I can be up and around a little . After 4 to 6 weeks I go back to hospital to see if blood clot that is in my heart has dissolved. If it has I will go back into hospital to have heart shocked back into rythum and a combination defillbalator/pacemacker inplanted.
A lot of changes going on at this time. I have been blessed with a loving group of family and friends.
Many prayers that are going on have been appreciated.Please continue as I have a long way to go.Just wanted everyone to know I am still kicking but just on the slow side.
My youngest daughter is coming to help me get a shower today.Not easy for me to be so helpless but so thankfull to have so many people wanting to take care of me.I am truly blessed.

Home Sweet Home

I know you are happy to back in your own bed. You bet that we have all been sending special prayers your way............wouldn't have it any other way!!! Get rested up for your procedure and I hope that clot dissolves quickly. It is nice that your dd will be around to help you.......you have given much of yourself to your children and others........and it is now their turn to assist you.

Take care of yourself and I'll keep you in my thoughts, prayers and heart. Love ya sis!

I'm new here and you don't know me, but I just wanted to tell you congrats on being able to go home. I know how much it helps to be in your own surroundings.

You'll be on my prayer list!

glad you are home. I know how hospital stays can be. Not much fun. Athough at times when you are suppose to take it easy, being at home can be hard too. Be sure to listen to the doctor and not do too much. Relax. Take doctors advise, and i'm sure that the clot will be dissolved soon. Love you bunches

Eleni,

Welcome home to you. Glad to hear you are home and taking it easy. I know that is hard for you to do. Just relax and let the others do the work for you. Like summer said it is their turn to wait on you lady. You are still in my prayers and I to hope the clot dissolves on its own. Keep us up to date on the second procedure.

Love you.

Sherri
