Home at Last!

Right on schedule, Bettie departed Auburn Regional Medical Center's Acute Rehab Center this afternoon, just after 2 p.m. How nice to get out of that air conditioned facility into the great (102 degree) outdoors.

Temperature aside, it is so great to have her home after five weeks in the hospital. What a difference to walk into the next room to see her versus driving (even though it was only five miles) to the hospital to see her. As I write, she is a mere 30 feet away. I love it.

Tomorrow a home care nurse will come to evaluate her and see where we go from here with regard to therapy and such. I'll continue to post to this blog daily unless or until it becomes routine and redundant. Then I may revert to less frequently.

As soon as we manage to upload the pictures, you can check out the videos that Jordan shot as Bettie made her grand exit.
