I'm out! Today I was released from UWMC. It was somewhat bittersweet to say goodby to the nurses and staff, after five weeks you tend to form relationships. It was really strange leaving the hospital and arriving at the Marriott. I can't really explain it but it was definitely sensory overload. Happy to be out but struggled to comprehend everything that was going on around me. John stayed with me all morning until Marc arrived and then gave me a ride to the hotel. When I arrived at the Marriott, Connie had taken care of most everything including completely sanitizing the room with the bleach solution. She had gone shopping and had food ready and dishes washed. We left the UWMC with a shopping bag full of medications including a list of what to take and when. Tomorrow will be the first time for Marc to give me an IV infusion, he claims he knows how to do it but is still a little nervous about it. I have two appointments at SCCA tomorrow. Blood draws to see if I'm still cooking and clinic visits to check out the other problems that still persist and will for a few more weeks. My mouth and feet are pretty sore today but not bad enough at this point to require any medications but hurts like hell. We are sitting here enjoying the view of Lake Union and the downtown skyline very nice! I am looking forward to sleeping in a nice bed and being cuddled by my husband, with that said I,m off to bed!! Keep up the prayers and positive thoughts as this next phase has just begun.
