It happened!!! We're home - well in Calgary. Scott arrived at the Foothills hospital by ambulance transfer at about 8:00pm tonight. What a day! We said goodbye to Edmonton and the people there. That was the hardest for me. There are so many people that have supported Scott and me through the most difficult experience we've ever had. They've helped us through some really rough spots and I'm going to miss seeing them. Everyone at the hospital that we said goodbye to wants to know how Scott progresses. He still has such a long ways to go. I expect he'll be hard for them to recognize a year from now. At least that's what I hope. If you ever need a heart transplant or major heart surgery I highly recomment the University of Alberta Hospital!
They took the last 2 chest tubes out today. Well, actually, one was accidentally pulled out. Now Scott continues to swell with fluid. I don't know what they'll do about that yet. I know his kidneys aren't helping and losing the chest tubes means on less way to drain fluid. I guess we'll see what the Calgary team does tomorrow.
It's good to be home to stay:)
