Getting ready for discharge



The nursing staff was again fairly accommodating in getting her overnight care condensed into just a few visits. Doctor Ott came in early this morning and told us everything looks good. Mom is ready to go home. After breakfast she'll be able to bath and then dress in her regular clothes. Of course, she's more than ready. The feeding tube solutions and supplies will be delivered to the house tonight so she'll be able to get started on her overnight nutrition. She is supposed to wait until Friday to start soft food. So, for now liquids only. All in all, things are looking good. She won't have another doctor visit for about two weeks when she goes in to get some stitches out. Of course we have the contact information of all her care givers just in case we run into any trouble.
