Dad is now home, he came home from the hospital last night. We had a hospital bed delivered and set-up last night, they also brought a walker and a nebulizer for his breathing treatments. We rearranged the garden room so that he can have his new recliner near and then the hospital bed and a table near him. He came in and went to bed, and he had a pretty good night. We had to go last night to get 4 prescriptions for him. He is on heart medications now too. Mom had to pick up one more today. He was up around 4:30, he wanted to sit for awhile in the recliner. He had a breathing treatment and had breakfast and he's been sleeping well (and noisily :) ) A Home Health Nurse came today around 10 am. She was really great, very nice, and she was here almost 2 hours. She will be back Monday or Tuesday, but they only allowed her to come for 2 visits. Mom may talk to them about getting some more visits, but maybe he won't need them, we'll see. I had a couple pics but they don't want to upload, so I'll try again later.

Our neighbor who has been away to Chile for a couple months, came to visit Dad today. That was nice.

Oh, Cindy was right and it is the steroids that is bringing Dad's sugar up. So we're watching his sugar but they did not have us get insulin for him. He's not thrilled about being on a low-sodium diet, but it'll probably do us all good.
