It is nice to have her home.

Home is never the same when the MOM is gone, any kid will tell you.  Our house was no exception to this and even with all of the help we had, I am incapable of filling JaNae's shoes in the running of this household. I think she does a better job (even in a drugged up state) than I could ever do.  We are so thankful to JaNae's mom for being here and helping keep our lives in order... I'd be in the loonie bin without her help.

Here she is asleep in her own bed.

It has been rough transition to home care.  She had a terrible time getting out of the car to walk into the house.  She has slept during the day only to lie awake in the night at times.  She has also been the victim of a 5 year old who loves her and tries to give her unexpected and very painful hugs.  Overall though, I think we've been doing a good job caring for her.  We have helped her stand up and lie down.  I haven't dropped her when she needed help standing (which is very good.).  She has also been able to eat some real food and has enjoyed it (even though she has a decreased appetite so far.)










We have an appointment with the surgeon tomorrow to pull her JP drain out and we hope he has some information about the pathology report for us.  JaNae didn't want her picture taken so I snuck one of her feet... she likes to sleep with her feet out.

PS.  The ducks are doing well and growing real feathers.

PPS.  Even though we won't be getting a dog, I was offered a cat today... I wonder if JaNae would mind if I got one... of course she wouldn't! (insert maniacal laugh here.)
