Home Again

Ken is home from the hospital. It was a long afternoon, getting the details worked out and the discharge paperwork completed. It looked like he might be sent home on oxygen, but in the end he was sent home with antibiotics in pill form and instructions to REST for the next three days. He will see the doctor on Friday to check on his progress.

Right now he is doing the best he's done in two weeks. We will elevate his head in bed for the night.

My daughter the doctor has the next couple days off to help us out. She plans to come tomorrow afternoon to see how Ken is doing.

Tonight we have him home, with the hope he continues to improve.

We are both grateful for your prayers, thoughts, and good wishes. I have no doubt that they played a part in his recovery.

More later. Now it's time for bed.

I don't know what's up with people and pneumonia this year. My sister had it in both lungs a few months ago and my nephew has had it as well and my BIL had it at the end of this last year too.

I am glad to hear that Ken is home. You will both rest better tonight.

There is something about being home and the nearness of loved ones that is very therapeutic. May you both be well.
