It's Wednesday, September 5th at 6 AM.  This was my Husband's birthday.Â
Â
The reason I have not written sooner like on Monday when I got home or even yesterday is because I am trying to get back to normal like before going to the Hospital. It has become a slow process so I am just going to tell you about the interesting Nurses I met on that last shift.Â
Â
There was a lovely blonde who I guessed was maybe 19 but was amazed when she told me she was 29. Had been married right after High School and had a Husband and four Children. Her name was Nikki and come to find out she lives in the same area we do. She was a delight and was responsible for giving me my medication which was not a pleasant thing. Oh they were terrible tasting but her smile and encouragement helped a lot.
Â
Then the other Lady who came in the day before all dressed in blue with a blue scarf on her head. This day she was in beige with a beige scarf on her hair. She,too, had a distinct accent and I asked where from and she told me she came from Africa. This was interesting because I don't remember ever meeting anyone from Africa before. She had worked in the Embassy before coming here.Â
Â
You remember hearing about Mark - well he came in to wish me well before he went off duty knowing that I was due to go home on Monday. I appreciate the good care he gave me.Â
Â
All the Nurses were amazed at my interest in the Devil Rays. You know the Rays have their Farm Team up here so they all knew of the Rays .Â
Â
The only game I could get on the Hospital TV was the Braves.  The Doctor knew I wanted to get home to see the Rays game on Monday so when the Blood people could not get any blood he took over and got enough blood for the test to determine if I was ready to go home.  Thanks Doctor even though we lost I was happy to be able to see the game.
Â
It is now 7 AM and I think I will rest awhile before the day begins because I am looking forward to this week end as special since my Cousin Margaret Ann and her Daughter Sherry are coming for a visit.  Margaret Ann is something like 10 weeks older than me and She and her two Sisters that also live in Orlando are like Sisters to me rather than Cousins.Â
Â
I will close now hoping all is well with you all.
Â
Thank you Joann for keeping up with the Postings. You did a great job.
Â
Love and prayers from here to there
