February 3, 2009: Today, Jill rested and caught up on her e-mail messages.
She is still coughing and will see the doctor tomorrow.
Finally a day with no interruptions!
Jill had a good nights sleep last night and started reading a book today.
Love to ALL

DAY 11 - MONDAY
February 2, 2009: Today was wonderful. I (Jill) am finally up to writing the blog myself. I intended to yesterday, but by the end of the day I was too tired. This morning I got the wonderful news that I would be discharged from the hospital today. Dr. Burt delivered the news and Dr. Testori followed with guidelines for me to follow and wrote 5 prescriptions for me fill. Some I will be taking for up to one year. I also received the wonderful news that I wouldn't have to leave the hospital with the PICC line still in. I was afraid when they started disinfecting the area and shut my eyes. They told me to take a deep breath and started pulling an 18 inch long spaghetti looking like tube out of my arm. Surprisingly I didn't feel a thing. What a wonderful feeling it was taking a shower without a line hanging out of my arm. I had my final breathing treatment and by the time my Mother got back from the pharmacy I was all packed and ready to leave.
On Wednesday I will have my blood counts checked and am scheduled to see Dr. Burt at 4:30 p.m. I am scheduled for the last appointment of the day so I will not expose any other patients to the RSV. I have to report any changes in my cough and asthma immediately.
Love,
Jill
