Home Sweet Home

 Jack came home from the hospital yesterday! He's about 30 lbs lighter and his energy level is not what he would like it to be but being home is the best medicine and we will forge ahead as he recovers his health. He is happy to sit again with Arnie and enjoy the comfort of the big brown recliner and cozy blanket!  I knew that "not so pretty" chair would eventually be welcomed!  I'm very happy not to make the long drive back and forth to University Hospital in Cleveland. We are extremely grateful for the care we received there. It's a ginormous place, unlike our University satellite hospital here in Ashland.  I had heard some not so nice reviews from others who had gone there but for us it was good.  A life saver.  From the life flight to discharge we can say we have been blessed with good technology and hard working healthcare professionals.  Especially as they struggle with the Covid crisis.  So for today all is good! Thank you all for the good thoughts and prayers and sweet comments here at the Pines.  We do have much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving weekend. 

Home Sweet Home

There is much to be said for that adage "there is no place like home." Glad Jack is home! Continuing to pray for his full recovery!

Thank goodness, YaYa! I was growing more concerned day by day, and sick at heart realizing that, in all likelihood, you and Jack spent Thanksgiving away from loved ones struggling with his health issues. I am very happy to know that he was released back into your care (and Arnie's) and is back home. Being in comfortable, familiar surroundings and close to the love and support of family members should speed his recovery. It is a blessing that Jack's care and treatment were handled professionally from start to finish even as the hospital system is overburdened dealing with the virus. I will continue to offer prayers that Jack feels better with every passing hour and will be able to thoroughly enjoy Christmas season at The Pines.

Glad to hear there is a 'happy Jack' and his girl up there. Hope it continues and I bet that chair is comfortable.
Love and good thoughts from Florida!

Thank God, Jack is home and in time he can gain the energy. Need to make muscles and stamina as well.

My husband says all him the best.
This is a great Thanksgiving.

Please be careful, yourself as well.
