Lynne is finally back home. I arrived at the hospital this morning at 8 in time to spend the last few minutes of her breakfast with her. After breakfast, we met with the therapist to practice a bit with navigating the entry way to our home and with transferring her to Jessica's car and out again. I got my training and practice to give Lynne her blood thinner injection. I learned that Jessica wants to give the injection, so my whining and plea for a reprieve from that duty paid off.

At Costco yesterday, they had a display setup for dipped apples with a variety of different coatings. I had to chuckle because about 7 or 8 ladies stood before the large glass counter with the "look". You know the one that appears when chocolate is in sight. Just two isles over another sample table for sugar-free chocolate was present but accompanied by the loneliest looking vendor I have ever seen at a Costco sampling table. I opted for the apples. Lynne called me later in the afternoon and requested delivery of the cherry dipped, so we had a little celebration this morning.








We were on hospital time waiting for discharge papers all morning and into the early afternoon hours. When lunchtime arrived, a nurse stuck her head into the room asking Lynne if she wanted lunch. She replied quickly, "No, Darryl is taking me out." I convinced her to eat something just to hold her over until we did get home.

Regards,
Darryl
