    Oh Gini (and Slick) you've made me grin from ear to ear this morning by sharing your delicious Dr Joel story Sounds like any woman would be lucky to get a sponge bath by him
    Still hoping the pain meds are helping more and praying that the tube comes out asap so she can get home!

    Someone is obviously feeling better!! Now, don't be extending your stay at the hospital just because Joel is so wonderful. Find out if he makes house calls. So happy that you're on the mend. Fingers crossed that the chest tube comes out today.

    Oh, Slick, that really made me smile. You really are feeling better!

    Thanks for that wonderful update, just shows how much better Slick is feeling, and that is just the best news ever!

    Still sending prayers and lots of good thoughts to you, Slick, that you will be home very soon. Who knows, maybe you can carry your young intern home with you!

    Slick, I agree, you are sounding MUCH perkier! So glad to hear this!!!

    Enjoy your "view" Slick.... I'm sure you can convince him you need a few extra sponge baths for medical purposes only ...

    Aw, Phred, you are right. I was just so anxious to let everyone know that she can go home tomorrow - and I wanted them to be sure to see it.

    I hope people continue to post here too!

    You hope "People" will keep posting here?


    Someone needs to start a Welcome Home Slick Thread!!!



    Hey, I just got an IDEA!!!!

  12. #732

    When ?

    Hey MOM (aka Gini) ...

    Do we know the Time of Release for Miz Slick?

    And HOW's she gettin HOME ?
    * with Friend Betty playing Chauffeur ?
    * or maybe Joel's gonna do the honors ?
    * or da Bus ?
    * or a Taxi ?
    * ride her Bike ?

    Hope she'n not planing to *walk*!

    Last tyme *I* was in the Whitecoat's Hangout ... they screwed around for
    6 hours
    before everyone "signed off" and wrote their discharge instructions.
    THEN they wanted me to *wait* for a "Wheelchair Transport Driver" to show up
    to haul my butt to the front door!
    My Guy Nurse asked if I wanted to go NOW? .... I said RIGHT Now!

    He gave me a choice - Long walk to and from the elevators ...
    OR we duck down the stairs and wind up in the lobby ...

    Seemed more like a Jail Break - but we skipped down the stairs as I phoned Pat & Joan to
    pull the get-a-way car up to the doors - THEY'd been waiting for over an hour!

    I pictured my Wheelchair Driver wandering the Fifth Floor ...Phred, Phred,
    has anyone seen a Phred?"


    Happie Homecoming, Slick!!

    LOL Phred! You had me cracking up - waiting for everyone to sign off and then having to wait for the wheelchair patrol can take hours! I'll never forget being released close to 9:00 p.m. after my mastectomy surgery because it took all day for everyone to sign off who had to sign off. I was ready for bed!

    Welcome home Slick! YAY! I'll post in the other thread too

    Well, Mr. Phred, I usually wait until after 7 PM to call her. Don't want her to miss out on her FABULOUS last hospital dinner, now do we? I think they serve it at about 6:15 - and my computer says 6:14 PM.

    I know some good friends are picking her up - they have been looking after her cat (Max) too.

    More after I talk to her.

    Well, it must be true - that she is going home - they came to take away the television while we were on the phone - and the guy was kind enough to give her an extra half hour on the phone.

    She is scheduled to be released at 10:00 AM and hopes to actually leave the hospital by 11:00 AM. She will see her surgeon for one last time in the morning at the hospital. Her friends will pick her up and help her carry her plants and goodies to the car. A friend dropped by this afternoon and had made her a large container of homemade chicken soup. Isn't that a thoughtful thing to do - she can have that for supper tomorrow night.

    Her last fabulous meal at the hospital was lentel soup and a plate of beef ravioli. Dessert was a half a canned pear. (she doesn't like sweets).

    She really is feeling better but still in some pain. The Dr. told her it would be about a month before that completely went away.

    Look for a post from her tomorrow night sometime from her HOME BASE!

    It has been a long way from there to here - but this is now behind her.

    Let the fun begin!
