My Mom got to go home this afternoon. The clot was at the base of her brain stem. She's lucky they got to it as quickly as they did.

Does she live alone? Her brother lives with her and her sister lives close. My brother in San Antonio has been with her each day in the hospital and is going to take her to her follow up in 2 weeks. Of course as soon as she got home her parrot bit her and she bled everywhere because of the blood thinners. She really needs to be more careful now.

Hi all! Crazy day of travel - I just put the kids down and I'm waiting for s to fall asleep. I don't know how those of you who's kids share a room do it... I'm a bundle of nerves that he's going to wake B up!! Thankfully we have a little condo so mh and I have some room to move around after bedtime.
At least we're in Florida and it's beautiful weather!!

Hi from the garage. DH and I are drinking while assembling this giant truck. We are missing one washer. It will not beat us.

klong11 that's wonderful she was able to be released already. Really the best possible outcome considering how serious things could have been.

Thanks for the gift card discount reminder wedding. I wasn't going to do it but then remembered how I shop there every other day.

Does she have any lingering symptoms? She is still dizzy and not quite balanced. She'll be on blood thinners for forever now, I believe.

E is so excited about this advent calendar! He was caught sitting in front of it waiting for the magic to happen and the note to appear. The note eventually appeared and we went on a "Christmas adventure " to a local farm and public wooded park. It was 70 today so it was quite packed but still a nice time.

She'll be on blood thinners for forever now, I believe. She'll be cold alot. Maybe add some sweaters to her Christmas gift. I'm so glad she's doing so well. She got so lucky.

We are back from the selfie party. My uncles girlfriend has some interesting friends. We left early because there were just too many people and LO was getting too hyper in a not child friendly house and around too many adults who aren't around kids very much. I don't even want to get into the details.

Dhs family is so annoying. His dad had a double knee replacement on Monday. We are on the Cape now to visit and fine out he had a heart attack on Thursday morning. His moms like"I didn't want to text you that". No lady, that's phone call worthy!! He's fine now and got a stint. We should be able to visit. I wonder if they called his brother. I bet she did. I'm so annoyed but don't want to vent to Dh because I'm sure he is too. I'm super late, but OMG, that's a lot for one person to go through at one time. Was he at the hospital when he had his heart attack? I can't imagine his recovery process! I'm going to finish reading, so you may have answered this question already!

He was at the hospital and the orthopedic surgeon was in the room talking to him. My FIL just remembers them talking and the surgeon saying "Oh shit!" and hitting the alarm. FIL didn't realize there was anything wrong but he must have looked funny or a monitor went off. They said he was extremely lucky someone was in the room with him when it happened.

I thought I commented on this,@klongoria. I'm really glad your mom is home and doing well. I hope you get to see her soon and that she continues to improve.
