Talking Doing the Kevin is home happy dance!

Well he was released from the hospital at noon today. We left with a ton of instructions, lists of medications, and oxygen. His level is 83 they said anything under 90 they require oxygen till his lungs catch up. So Apria came out about 3:30 this afternoon with the oxygen home model and taught me all the ins and outs. I have got him bathed, shaved, medicated, dressings changed, dressed fed and relaxing in the recliner with his Sudoku books. Home health care comes out tomorrow to work with us for the next week. Also I have to get all his meds filled and few other things I didn't know I would need so I will have one of his brothers baby sit.

I am thrilled to have him home but I am already feeling overwhelmed. I am so afraid of screwing something up. Say a "you know what" and I am welcome to any advice.

Glad he's home! Wonderful news.

I hate it when the hospital sends you home with all of the stuff you need to do - and the person who needs it. They KNOW you're going to be overwhelmed.

Lori - I know you will handle it. You're strong and smart - and about the most organized woman on the boards. I am so glad Kevin's home. Recuperating in your own bed is so much better than in the hospital.

Lori - I'm glad he's home and apparently doing well. Write things down and don't be afraid to ask questions. Please take care of yourself. You won't do dh any good if you're physically and emotionally bankrupt, so make sure you get enough rest, eat right, and get some time just for you by calling in a "babysitter." and
