WE ARE HOME!!!!!

We just got her home about 45 mins ago! A few things happened today. Before the discharge we found out a few things about what she needs to do for the next few weeks. For the next 2 weeks she has to lay way way low. No laundry, bills or going out. (sounds like a vacation to me) Four weeks after that she needs to take it easy. She should not be driving and she needs to just lay low. She might be able to do a little work but we will wait and see how she does. Also, the blood work shows that she is anemic. This freaked her out of course but not of any high concern with the doctors. Obviosly she was able to go home so all is well. As we were wheeling her out, Paula, Doug, Taylor and Quintin showed up. Wow! This was totally God because my mom was concerned about the anemia news. They are sitting here right now (at home) and Paula was able to put my moms mind at ease! (Paula was an RN in an ICU for many years) How perfect! Her color has already changed and she seems very happy to be home. It was definetly God that Paula showed up and was able to settle her nerves when we got home. Everyday the timing has been amazing! Check out the pictures.....



Now you all know how much my mom missed her dog but I don't think you realize how much our dog missed my mom. Here is a picture of the dog earlier this week moping around while waiting for mom to come home.



We had another therapy dog that came to the hospital this morning and it really got my mom excited to see her pup! See below...


So obviously when we got home both my mom and our dog were thrilled to see each other. My mom teared up and Cooper went absolutely crazy! We had to calm him down but wow was he overjoyed! See below...





In other family news, my uncle Billy graduated with his Masters degree from Cal-State Fullerton. My mom wanted to be there so bad and started to cry when she knew she couldn't make it to the ceremony. As soon as the ceremony was over my uncle went straight to the hospital in his cap and gown to see my mom! Here is a picture....

Great day!

FYI, I HAVE BEEN READING ALL OF YOUR COMMENTS TO HER! SHE REALLY ENJOYS THEM! THANKS FOR ALL OF THE SUPPORT! We are going to keep the posts going frequently. There is a long road ahead and a lot of uncertainty. Mom has an appointment with her neurologist and neurosurgeon on Tuesday and her Oncologist some time next week. We still need your prayers and my mom told me to tell you all to keep praying as she is still very fearful. You will be hearing from my dad, sister and yes, my mom will be making a post soon. Check back! Thanks again!
