Day 5: Tuesday night

Hi Folks,

Another long day.

You must be tired of reading that.  I'm certainly tired of writing it.

But here we are.  Both Dale and his donor are still in the hospital despite hopes that they might be released today.  There was a change of pain meds that set back recovery.  But once again we are hopeful that DBD will be sprung tomorrow.  Dale perhaps on Thursday or Friday.

That said they are both busy walking laps around the floor at 9Long.  The transplant team gives you a very attractive t-shirt once you've walked 12 laps which is the equivalent to a mile.  They both have earned said t-shirt.

I'm kind of punch drunk from lack of sleep so I'll sign off now.

And write more tomorrow.

May all beings be happy,

  1. Laura dear,

    I am presuming that they will hook you up with home health care here. If they haven't already talked to you about it, ask them. The folks connected with Sierra Nevada Memorial are top notch. They have an RN, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and a social worker available. Each person needs a personalized plan. They were so kind and helpful and it made a life possible at home. Call me if you need more info. Hope you're home soon. Love, Sarah
