Well, today Gary went home!! After 4 months and 4 days (127 days), he finally got to go home. I just finished talking with Mia and Gary and he was eating lunch and feeding the dogs about every other bite! She said both of the dogs have not left his side since he'd been home. Once they even got in the bed with him and he had to yell for her to get them down.
Mia said that the nurse would be out soon to do an assessment on how much care he would need at home and they'll arrange for someone to be with him. However, Mia said that Rosie will also be helping her. Mia had already transferred Gary from the chair to bed and back about four times and had made it fine.
Gary was sitting by his huge aquarium with salt water fish and enjoying it. Mia and the boys had gotten it for him for his birthday in April and he didn't get to enjoy it very long before he got sick. It'll be an enjoyment for him now for sure.
I just want all of you to know how much we appreciate all your prayers, letters, e-mails, and concern during these past four months. God has heard us and given Gary back to us. We just praise Him for that and we all know that Gary is here for a reason. Let's just pray that God will show Gary what it is and that Gary will recognize it.
Don't stop praying! Gary still has a long way to go to be back to his old self.
Much love and thanks to all of you!
Nancy and Bill
