Mom’s Home

Cindy got the green light to go home today.  All the critters are thrilled that mom’s home.  The case manager taking care of her discharge made sure that Cindy had everything she needed to continue her recovery at home.  Rita confirmed that all the equipment and supplies were in place.  The only other services that Cindy would require when she returned home would be physical therapy and pulmonary therapy. These treatments would probably start at home for a week or two and then continue on an outpatient basis.

Discharge happened this afternoon.  By the time Cindy got home, she was tired and had a difficult time getting herself situated at home. Spending all that time in the hospital for the past month put a damper on her spirits.  Hopefully getting back into a routine will help.

Pauline continues in her recovery.  Part of her physical therapy is to do more things that she would normally do.  When I got home from visiting with Cindy today, Pauline was sweeping the floor.  I thought that was a good way to spend her exercise time.
