There is no place like...

HOME!!!!!!!!!!
My dad (and mom) came home today from the hospital. All of the allergies seemed to have subsided. He is doing SO WELL walking... you should see him! I really feel that in a week, he will be like a new man! He was just in SUCH pain prior to the surgery. Now, he did not even get the prescription for the pain medications filled. Amazing. He has many steps to go, but I am optimistic that things are moving forward for him. I am just relieved to have him home.
Visiting nurses & Physical therapists will come to their home, so we are covered there. My WONDERFUL Aunt Joyce (my dad's sister) who IS a visiting nurse is going to visit for a few days and help them - THANK YOU, Aunt Joyce - You ROCK! MY FAMILY IS AWESOME. My mom and dad are loved, and we are so grateful.
Alli's game was moved to Wednesday due to the rain we are getting. Let's hope for sunny skies this week, so those girls can get out there and play!
Thanks to all who have been praying for my dad, and keep up the GREAT work... he is doing much better!
