Home Sweet Home

Wednesday, March 03, 2010

Hi All,
We made it back to Moss Landing safe and sound. We were even lucky enough the get out of the hospital between all the showers and beat rush hour all together!! Which really made it alot less stressful.( Especially for me as I was driving, and there are no such things as "Rush Hours" or "Traffic Jams" where I live!!!) Brent is doing great! The discharge process was actually really fast. No hassles at all. We just walked right out, got in the car,and headed Home!! Yea!! We stopped at Eriks Deli for lunch and then home. By that time Brent was pretty tired. Its been a busy day and we're just now getting to relax together for the first time since this experience started. Its really been something else!! Blows my mind to think about where Brent was at in ICU, a hurting unit to say the least, 6 short days ago. Sure does confirm what an amazing machine the human body is if taken care of,and the advantages of preventative and proactive health and medical choices. I've been through alot of surgeries with my family, (fortunately they weren't on me!) and the difference in going into a surgery healthy and strong verses ambulatory is incredible. The correlation is, if you go in strong, you seem to come out strong....food for thought!! That's it for tonight folks. Thank you all again for hanging in there with us and keeping the energy going~~****~~~~***.....donna

Love, Sarah

so super glad brent is home safe and sound. i have to apologize for my lack of communication due to my lack computer savy. i kept going on to the web site and getting the same Blog of the day of his surgery. i thouht that was strange but figured donna had her hands full. then this morning i, dah, figured out how to read all the updates. so that is why you haven't heard from me. althoughi've been thinking about you everyday, i had nothing to add to what i had already sent.
donna, thank you sooo much for keeping us informed and taking care of the brentster. hi to "dad" and all his friends and family. i'll probably call next week sometime. until then if brent feels up to it he has my #. however i know how important rest is. love from di baby (and tim)

Welcome home Brent! Yeah!I bet your own bed never felt so darn good!

I know it will be awhile, but let me know when you start "jamming" again. If you can't get out to jam, bring the jam to you! I'll come down if I'm free!
