Heart of a Girl

My mom has a new heart valve.

The procedure went fairly well, but it wasn't a great time leading up to it.

I won't get into all the deets, but it has been a long-ass week for Blobby.

I am EX-hausted.  ....and I still have to make it through today and hopefully get her home. Or to THE home.  The one I put her in.

Just kidding. I didn't. My sisters did.

She will (or should) have minimal recovery time, perhaps some home health care. It beats going to rehab, which I'd never get her to do.....again. Not after last time.

It will take a few weeks, but hopefully she'll feel better than she has for the last year or two. It's not a fix-it-all, I mean, she is 90.5 - years old that is, not an FM station that plays NPR.

I am looking to getting her settled and having a long weekend, because it has been a long week.

I hope your mom recovers comfortably. home rehab is SO much better than a facility. and YOU need some down time with your husband and the furkids.
