Sometimes the path to getting better is full of steps and icy spots…the important thing is to keep on keeping on.
Far Guy was released from the hospital yesterday. His Doctor ordered all the IV antibiotics and steroids that he could. Now it just takes time. Far Guy could have stayed in the hospital for a few more days but he chose to come home to me and Chance. He has the option of going back if he is not doing well.
Boy was Chance happy to see him! Far Guy napped, I made chicken and dumplings for supper…chicken is medicinal isn’t it?
We plan to just stay home and rest this week. So far so good. It is much easier for me to care for him at home rather than running back and forth to the hospital.
We are thankful that he was able to return home.
Thank you for all your prayers and good thoughts!

Home is where we feel the best! Hope that Far Guy keeps feeling better and that you don't come down with something. Chance is a great nurse! Take good care of yourselves now!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear he is home but take care of yourself as well.
ReplyDeleteYes, sometimes it easy to care for people at home and the patient does better at home. You don't need to be running back and forth to the hospital as you are just recovering yourself. Both of you get better real soon. You are both in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad Far Guy was able to come home. I always think it's easier to fully recover once you get to be back in your own home. I hope he's soon back to his old self again, and no return trips to the hospital are required.
ReplyDeleteGood news! Being home will lift his spirits and help him recover.
ReplyDeleteGlad he's home, you and Chance will take good care of hime and let him get some rest.
ReplyDeleteGood!
ReplyDeleteThis news has made my day and maybe my whole week. I am glad all the bases are covered and Far Guy can get some rest. You need to get the same kind of rest and keep everything as low keyed as possible. Chicken anything will be helpful. I bet a good homemade meatloaf build him up too. You two take care.
ReplyDeleteSo happy to hear he is able to be home again! With the homemade goodies, he's sure to be back to his usual self soon.
ReplyDeleteThat is super news - sending prayers for getting well (spring is coming!) Rest, rest, rest. Hey, give me a call or send a message if you need anything.
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful news! It's also great that he can go back if need be. He will recover much better at home surrounded by those he loves and that love him. Plus, you won't get worn out running back and forth plus wondering when you are at home, how he is doing. I will continue to pray for you all. Hugs~Sam
ReplyDeleteBest ever news!
ReplyDeleteWoohooo, take it easy , all of you. Rest is the best medicine.
ReplyDeleteTake care.
That's great news!!
ReplyDeleteI hadn't been in here for several days to see that Far Guy had even gotten sick, let alone visited the ICU. :^( I'm glad to read he's home and recovering!
ReplyDeleteHome's best when we have some body to look after us.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Home is best. Hope all goes well.
ReplyDeleteI so agree...home is where health can really begin!
ReplyDeleteGlad you all are on the road to recovery. Nice to be home and in one's own bed.
ReplyDeleteRecovery is always better at home--yes! You can never really rest well or long in the hospital. SOOO glad to hear FarGuy is home under the watchful eyes of you and Chance. Made my day! :)
ReplyDeleteSo good to hear Far Guy is home and on the mend.
ReplyDeleteThere is no place like home but sometimes home is loud and crazy
ReplyDeletePrayers for all of your and especially for Far Guy. Chance will help with the healing too and so will your Chicken Soup and your love and being at home. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteJoy
So glad he's home and under your care!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad he's home and hope he gets to stay there. I can let up a little on the old worry machine and kneel down and give thanks instead. :-)
ReplyDeleteWoot! Glad he got home safely. Nothing helps heal the soul better than Chicken and dumplings. Or maybe Chicken soup.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear that Far Guy is at home. Will keep up the prayers for him!
ReplyDeleteThere is something so comforting about just being home in your own bed. Not to mention the touch of homemade chicken soup (or dumplings). Wishing both of you an uneventful recovery!
ReplyDeleteI know he will get good care from you and Chance.
ReplyDeleteOh gosh - what a scare! So glad he is home now! Hugs.
ReplyDeleteWishing you and your man a speedy get well. We just finished a three day yearly check up at the Alzheimers dementia Mayo research center. Unfortunately the results were much worse as I expected and know were on to psychiatry and help from social services. We stick with out motto though" we're and team and we keep on truckin" . I know you understand that concept and it's what we do....:)
