The hospital has just a few of us left. It's nice and peaceful. Took several PT ordered walks today. One was all the way to Radiology which impressed everyone. "How many days since your new heart?"
Wrapped a few presents and ate Chinese food all day. Received some cool pre-Christmas presents. KHS gave us a cute cookie display, the Brady's got a decorated lavender tree, and the powers got us an Edible bouquet of fruit which was promptly attacked by the Eater.
Hope everyone had a good Xmas eve.
Merry Christmas to all the Patricks. Ellis,how exciting to have a new heart for 2012 and then forever. You are still my hero and we love you. Dave and Jan Cleator
