Day 55
Back in Houston feeling refreshed, recharged and ready to
tackle our
remaining days in out-patient limbo.
What a treat it was to get to go
home for two whole days.
When we left, the yard was still cold and bare,
and we returned to
green grass, blooming dogwoods and brilliant
azaleas. Home never
felt so good (even if I did have to sleep in the
camper in the
driveway for isolation purposes).
We had a chance to
catch up with the our childrens' lives and see
for ourselves that they are
doing well. (Thank you, Grandma and
Granpa!) The only thing that
could have topped all this was if we
had been given enough notice to fly
my mother in for the
reunion....she was missed. We hope to get her
down to Houston very
soon.
Traveling with the Home Infusion Bottles
is no problem. We just put
them in a soft cooler with and ice pac.
They stayed nice and cool
for the four hour drive each way.
On
Saturday, we just hung around enjoying being home and together as
a
family. On Sunday, while my family went to Church (way too
crowded
for me to take the risk), I went for a long drive out on the
rolling
prairies north of Colleyville with a fellow shutterbug and
good
friend. The more I explore Texas, the more I am taken aback by
her
subtle beauty. Texas is far from being the tumbleweed dustbowl
that
many Easterners (including myself at one time) often think it
is. It
has a unique and rustic beauty all its own. I love it here.
The
ride home was uneventful. We were sad to leave, but re-committed
to
getting through the second half of the process with a minimum of
stress. The visit home had such a healing effect on our homesick
hearts. It was a great gift from my Transplant Team to give us
permission to go!
Today (Monday) I go into the clinic later
afternoon for bloodwork,
IV fluids and a meeting with the team.
Hoping the this first blood
test since returning comes out as good as the
one before I left!
Regards and
Prayers
