July 9th update!

I thought i would update a little. There isn't much new going on. They moved me from ICU to I think the 4th floor which is the surgery floor around 11:30 am yesterday. Once I got here I have had lots of nice fun visitors thanks so much. I have had no really pain like the first night. I have been able to be up and around. Ryan and I even went for a walk around the hospital last night. The nurse didn't check on me much so I got some better sleep last night. I was even able to lay more in the bed last night.

Doctor came in this morning and said when ever i was ready to go home I could. So we will see how quick things get pushed through. I wasn't wanting to go home right away but I am ready to be in my own house. I wasn't sure I would be but I am ready.

So I am doing really well.

I can't remember if Ryan posted but I will see Dr.Fewle in 2 weeks we will get more update then. For now no driving and lifting otherwise what ever I am up for I can do. No washing my hair until thursday and he said it will take a few weeks to get all the yellow junk cleaned up. I can't start radiation until I see him Dr. Fewle and as of right now I don't have a Dr. appointment for the radiation but that will be coming with time. Right now I am going to try and rest to recovery faster back to things.

Thanks so much for the comments, visitors and of course the meals. It helps to not have to worry about that so thank you so much.

So glad to hear that you are felling well. When I was in the hospital I always felt like they should bring my own bed. You just need to go home and have someone take the kids for a couple of days to get that mini vacation.=) Keep being positive. You are fighting a good fight.

Rochelle, Keep this poem in mind. I have it on my wall and it has helped me. I don't know the author. Love, Teacher Kathy

Why I Shouldn't Worry:
I am chosen by the will of God,
Saved by the grace of God,
Held by the love of God, Empowered by the spirit of God, Guided by the Word of God,
and protected by the Hand of God.
That's Why!

Thank you both for allowing us to visit with the BOTH of you. We were having a good time with you both. Nurses probably thought we were all crazy!

But it's nice to talk to someone that is going through some of the same things we are.

Please call us if you need something from the store, someoene to take the kids anywhere they need to go, we are always up late till at least 11pm or midnight most evenings.

And you wanted our email address so here it is: dale.heidi@yahoo.com

Take care and RELAX...i know that is hard for you, but dont be so stubborn. Get better so we can do dinner after our radiation appointments.

Take care and call for anything.
