Dear Family & Friends,
Thank you so much for your messages by e-mail and text. It’s been so good to read them after my day at the hospital. Knowing so many people are praying has been invaluable.
Andy is making good progress. He is now on the coronary care ward and being very well cared for. He is doing short walks (with monitors, drips, etc.)and getting stronger every day.
It’s planned that he will be home here for Christmas, providing his heart rhythm can be stabilized. Apparently this is not an uncommon occurrence after emergency surgery.
Today he has seemed much more his normal self and is being very patient.
The different system has been a little confusing at times. We are a bit of a novelty, being English and the people who came on holiday and spent a week in the hospital! They love our “cute” accents and Andy is getting used to being called “honey” and “sweetie”
It’s good to be with Russell & Angie and the girls. I have had transport and meals provided and regular entertainment mainly in the form of ballet shows!
We have some anxiety about Andy being home and away from the hospital but we have been given plenty of information. We have our own large room with sofa etc. a little separate from the other bedrooms so will be very suitable. There’s also a long corridor for exercise!
Hope you all have a very good Christmas
With love
Brenda
