I got out of the hospital Saturday afternoon around 230p. I went down to visit one of the other guys on the treatment which I am getting and he said that I was smiling ear to ear. I know I was. After 8 days in the hospital it felt good to get out. I did end up getting another blood transfusion prior to being discharged. I also left with a bag full of pills that I've got to take.
Yesterday afternoon and today have been relaxing days. We watched Brad Lidge blow 2 save opportunities on consecutive days against the dreaded Yankees, at least with today's game the Fightin' Phils came back and bailed him out and won 4-3 in 11 innings.
The doctors are keeping a close watch on my blood counts so Jamie and I will trek over to the hospital to get labs drawn tomorrow and Tuesday I have an appointment with my doctor where again I will have my bloodwork drawn to make sure everything is in line or if there is something that needs to be corrected. Have a great Memorial Day, enjoy a Hot Dog, Brat, or Burger off the grill for Jamie and I, they don't allow grills here at the Hope Lodge. Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that you were released from the hosp yesterday and everything is going pretty well on schedule. Always happy to hear your cheering voice. Had our gourmet meal and went for a hike around the subdiv. Sorry you can't have a brat, burger or dog but the day will come when you can and just think how much you will enjoy those little items that one always takes for granted. Have a Happy Memorial Day and the rest of the week.
As Tyler told me tonight when talking to them,
"Cheers Papa....what a character. He knows just when to say the right things I kid you not.

I hope you got to bring those fetching white stockings back to Hope Lodge.... Glad you're outta there and breathing NYC air instead of hospy air. Oh gosh, is that better? :-) Listen, we're thinking about you, praying for you and Jamie. You two are awesome! As for me, I'll be cussing those kidneys to get their act in gear and get that creat down! - Mike & Jude
