Happy St Patricks Day!
Dad is home from 1 pm this afternoon.For now he is napping with a toy to put to protect his heart.He cought a lot but with all the tubing he got it is normal.....Feared to had saw his scarves so big ones.... at the chest and leg...
He went on the balcony just like 6 minutes,but eve the cat his happy to resee him
He had no medication(did not ask for some grr) to continue to quit smoking..he said he dont want to smoke..but the nurse that will come can prescripe him something perhaps
I put some bath towells on the batroom counter for him because no shower for now...he have such a difficulty to move
It was a big operation...slow but surely :)
We will face that and we will be ok
dad had no appetize for lunch ..a little bit worried..but will have salmon pot pie for dinner :) with a salad
Have a good evening and night.
@cath007 Just wonderful that your Dad is now back at his own place. The familiarity of the surroundings ( and the cat! lol ) will most certainly aid in his healing. I am very happy for your family. Everything should slowly return to normal, especially with his decision to quit smoking.
If past smokers could testify to this, I think one's appetite increases after quitting, so get ready to cook up a storm for him...ha ha
All the best!!
@walkonby : thanks :)I am not a very good cook but I will learn hahaha!!! :)
Dad ordered is new medication and get it delivered..wow...10 pills per day..he is quite discouraged...but he will face it..no choice
He have to call the pharmacist for informations.Good thing he get them delivered!!! :)
He will have the visit of the clsc nurse tomorrow morning for his vital signs ..good thing for a speedy follow up!!! :)
He eated well for supper so I am a little less worried
He also fill up the form online for this health insurance he will get with that
Good thing he get out of the hospital today...I dont know if depend the zone in the hospital but now they charge 13$ per day for watching the tv..that is ridiculous....:rant:
I was in the hospital for 9 weeks 3 years ago and had to pay $86 a week for the first 7 after that they were kind enough to put it down to $36 weekly. Unfortunately u can't live with out it when your by yourself most of the time.Quote:

@cath007 - Very happy to hear that your dad is home. The journey begins- it may be slow or unpredictable. You will conquer the bumps in the road together! I bet you are so happy!
I had a terrible night last night and so slept til noon ( after finally getting to sleep at 4) So now I am hardly tired again.
Had to take Tootie to the vet again. She has another bladder infection. He gave her an antibiotic shot that works for 2 weeks. Nothing else bad happening there. He reminded me that she wouldn't survive surgery, so was confident that this course of action would fix her up. I'm feeding her the right food to prevent urinary infections and giving her the meds to help her circulation around her heart and lungs.
Today I also gave her flea and tick meds that will last until June.
So, it's off to bed to try to sleep.
Take care sleep well!
@cat007 - glad to know your dad is well enough to come home - recovery will be a while, and I hope he continues to progress.
Hoping you know about all the home care available for your dad, don't hesitate to take advantage of them. In SK most things are covered by the government, but if one needs assistance with getting someone in to help clean house etc., we are able to get workers at a very reduced rate instead of paying tons for private companies. Plus, one has the security of knowing the workers are hired through the government home care.
I am hoping someone at the hospital spoke to you about this already before your dad's release from hospital.
Talk about multicultural!

For those who may not know, on the right is depicted a Ukrainian kozak (Cossack)- a minstrel at times, at others a fierce fighter.
I am lucky enough to have a book of writings about the Kozak Holota -- that was my maiden name. It is a compilation of stories based on ancient Ukrainian ballads.
Hi, hope that all of you are well.
I had physio mid-afternoon and am really feeling hurt all over, as one would expect.
However, I did well by doing three stands - but my darned right knee prevented me from being able to step with any improvement. Hey, at least she said my posture is better!
Had no choice but to sleep a bit after supper, so I shall be up for hours yet .
Decent charge on tablet, so I will try to watch some shows.
Milan is coming over tomorrow after work, so Yipee!
Xxooxx
