Home Sweet Home

WE ARE HOME!!!  Although we are home, Casey still has a lot of work to do.  The rest of the work can be done at home.  At home she is more comfortable, able to go at her own pace, and we don't have to wait on or rely on others to get her what ever she may need.  It's a lot of work for all of us.  We are more than happy to do the work though.

We got home around dinner and have since been trying to get all of her new prescriptions filled, unpack, laundry, etc.  Luckily Casey's night nurse was able to start back up right away.  Tim and I have been taking turns with 3-4 hour sleep shifts.  It is going to be really nice to lay down in bed tonight.  I am sure I won't sleep much since I am still so worried about Casey, but at least I can lay down in my bed and I know that someone she knows is right next to her the entire time.

We will have a quiet, low-key family get together this weekend to celebrate her being home and her birthday.  She is not up for much so we will postpone her friend party until she is ready and able to enjoy it.

Thank you to everyone for all of the thoughts, prayers, cards (virtual & physical), gifts, food, and visits.  We are truly blessed to have such amazing family and friends.  We really appreciate continued thoughts and prayers as she continues her long recovery.
