First day back at home. So far so good. I got up yesterday went to one grocery store, then waited for a second to open. While waiting B messaged me and said the doctor had come by and she was free to go anytime. Nice. Originally they told me noon-ish, and now it was only 7:30am. I got a bunch of ready made stuff from the store - soup, pop in the oven fresh pizzas, etc. I have a menu planned for the week but I also wanted to have stuff B can make quickly for med taking. Finished shopping at 8:14, dropped everything off, and was at the hospital by 9. We got her all squared away, brought down to car, then I waited at the pharmacy for all the pills coming home with us. Many pills. We were home before 11 which is great because I originally hadn't planned on leaving until 10:30. The rest of the day was mostly making sure she was comfortable. She slept a little but not as much as I would have liked. But all in all, things went well. I slept in the guest room last night to give her enough space, and she is getting up more frequently than me to take meds. Constant alarms would drive me nuts.
Before I go, I want to thank each and every one of you who sent something so far. You've really made B feel loved and special. Here's what things look like right now:
As you can see, she's received a ton of loving. Her dad finally stopped by last night with the bouquet on the far right, but nothing, not even a text, from her mother. Heck, one of those is from my company as a whole. Even more than her own mother. What a piece of work. In addition to all of the above, my sister sent a lovely care package of clothes and a puzzle to keep B occupied. She loved it.
I am going to stick around the house today, play some video games but stay as close as possible.
