So here's what's going on

As noted below, Betsy was discharged from the hospital last Wednesday evening. I am very happy to report that her recovery is slow and steady, in short it is proceeding well. Besty is as ambulatory as can be expected after such a major procedure. Up and down the stairs once a day pretty much wipes her out. We have been extremely fortunate with he home care so far, last Thursday her sister Margaret, an R.N from Delaware, was with her and on Friday another sister Tennie, an R.N from Long Island came down and will be with us until Tuesday.

Betsy is doing her very best to get back into a routine, though the regular day-to-day things do wear her out. It will be awhile before she has a lot of stamina, but for someone less than two weeks post op she is doing amazingly well.

Thanks you all for your prayers and all of the meals that many of you have prepared for us. Both greatly sustain us and we are most grateful.

That's it for now.
