Dr. Lui, Angie’s primary cardiologist, just stopped by to see Angie and make sure she’s ready to go home.\u00a0 Dr. Rogers gets to make the final call, but having Dr. Lui saying she’s ready is a good sign.\u00a0 We think that we’ll probably get discharged this afternoon or evening.\u00a0 Angie is thrilled.<\/p>\n
Dr. Rogers et al. came by about an hour after Dr. Lui and checked in.\u00a0 He said that they would come back in a couple of hours and go on a walk with her while monitoring her O2 levels.\u00a0 If they like what they see, they’ll let her go home today.\u00a0 That is very encouraging.\u00a0 Already, I’ve been on two practice walks with Angie \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Once we get home, we’ll still have lots of work to do.\u00a0 Angie will need supervision for at least a week or two.\u00a0 Thanks to the very<\/em> generous people who have offered to donate some vacation time to me to help take care of Angie, I should be able to stay with her.\u00a0 I should be able to work from home and get in half days so I don’t burn through other people’s vacation any more than I have to.\u00a0 Occasionally, I may need to go in for a few hours, so if anyone would like to come play nurse and visit Angie for a bit, that would be very helpful.<\/p>\n We’ve both been overwhelmed by the love and support from everyone during this whole ordeal.\u00a0 Thank you so very much!\u00a0 I wanted to especially thank Brandon and Mary, who opened their home for me (less than 2 miles from the hospital).\u00a0 I can’t imagine having to have had to commute on top of spending very long (and worrisome) days here at the hospital.\u00a0 I will be forever grateful for your incredible kindness.<\/p>\n Hopefully my next post will be the news that we’re packing up to go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Dr. Lui, Angie’s primary cardiologist, just stopped by to see Angie and make sure she’s ready to go home.\u00a0 Dr. Rogers gets to make the final call, but having Dr. Lui saying she’s ready is a good sign.\u00a0 We think that we’ll probably get discharged this afternoon or evening.\u00a0 Angie is thrilled.
