Thursday +15 (12:30 PM) Dismissed!

Just a quick note to let everyone know that Jackie will be dismissed from the hospital this afternoon. She will still have her daily appointments, etc.

So as not to gloss over the situation, I doubt she will be able to walk back to the apartment on her own. It is likely she will still require a wheelchair. It will be some days before her strength returns. I don't think it will be long...she wants to go to the Outback for a steak!

She will stay out-patient as long as she has no major problems. This would include fevers, etc. It would not be uncommon for her to have to return to in-patient status at some point. In fact it would not be uncommon for her to need to return several times before the 100 day period ends.

I know she is glad to get back "home" to the apartment. That's bound to make her feel better, and she can try out some of those bistro gourmet dinners you got.
