I'm Bustin' Out of Here!

This has been a shorter stay than I had last month, and the medical team has been just as wonderful. But let's be honest: I'm tired of being in the hospital!
Dr. Piedra came in this morning and ordered my discharge meds and paperwork. I guess they decided that a patient who can walk the halls for 30 minutes to an hour at a time doesn't need to stay in the hospital. 😊
This is essentially what I looked like walking the halls.

I am looking forward to getting home, washing my hair, cooking my own food, and sleeping in my own bed. Soreness is already going down, so I'm also looking forward to using my Flexi Clips again. I love that my Lilla Rose products are never a problem on my head. We just had too many scans that required no metal in my hair, & the soreness in my neck from a new incision messed with my flexibility for a day or so.

The doctor and I are hoping that this will be the last head surgery for ten or twenty years. Either way, I know God has something planned for me, because I am still here.

The Lord is my strength and my song;  he has become my salvation.
Psalm 118:14 ESV

God , the Lord, is my strength;  he makes my feet like the deer’s; he makes me tread on my high places.  To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments.
Habakkuk 3:19 ESV
