Hello Friends! Sorry to be so absent from the blog - I will try to do better :-) I am recovering really well - hurray! Each day gets a little bit better. I am totally off the pain meds and just using tylenol, walked almost a mile last night, and am getting my appetite back. The home health nurse stopped by today and gave me an A+ which made my little over-achiever soul proud :-) A friend gave me a lovely book this week - it reminded me that none of us goes through life alone. So thank you - for the thoughts, prayers, text messages, cards, the food, the flowers, gifts, UNO games, and skittles. I couldn't do this alone, and I am so grateful for all of you. Cheers :-) Lisa

Hello friends - welcome home to me! After a long day spent with various tests and therapists I am home. Only three nights and four days in the hospital - not bad :-) I am still not able to do much more than sit around but I am in great hands with my family, they are making sure I take my drugs on time etc. I can climb stairs now too - exciting times. It is such a relief to be free of all the tubes and wires and I am looking forward to a good nights sleep. Thanks for all the well wishes - and the flowers are gorgeous! My apartment is full of them now :-) So grateful for the team at Northwestern and my amazing family. 'night Lisa
