Friday was freedom day!

Late afternoon yesterday I finished every test they could think of, and with a wad of prescriptions in hand, I left the big old medical facility.

I really haven’t done it yet as I write this…but I’m in street clothes again. Shoes! Do you know you wear these little footies with plastic treads when a patient? It’s a big adjustment to have real shoes on after 5 days.

Sorry, photos aren’t posting. And before this gets published in the morning I probably am not going to feel like doing it at home tonight – putting in photos.


OK, at dawn  I added these last two hospital photos, where I had the swallow test with barium...and they said it looked ok. Yay!


A great big thank you to all my Blogger friends who have supported me this week with lots of fun and loving comments!

    1. Thanks so much for being here for me this week! I have several friends who live near me, and we do things together (but not visit in hospital so much!) So it kept me sane to have blogs, and blog friends!

  2. I have thought about you and wondered how you were doing, and I am pleased that you have been set free or at least sent home.

    1. Thanks...and now I have to do for myself, everything that the hospital staff were doing for 5 days! Cook, clean, set up medical equipment (CPAP and nebulizer) and use it all! And take a welcome shower! Boy did I need that!

    1. Finally! Now to change routines a bit to incorporate even more treatment (preventative) exercises!

  6. Hooray. Glad you escaped, though it looks quite a nice hospital facility. Hope you'll settle happily at home again with no issues.

  7. I would be miserable in those hospital socks. I need my Skechers for support, and even then my ankles wobble, but without them, I almost fall over.
