Discharged

Dr. Fox came in just a moment ago, and this time he was a little less like a tornado. He put in the papers for Liza's discharge and started carrying our stuff out into the hallway. Just kidding. But we will be leaving in a few hours and Liza is excited but nervous about the trip. We've organized with the nurse to get a new round of meds just before we walk out.

You can specifically pray for the left side of Liza's head and neck. She just said that without the pain on that side, she feels like she really wouldn't need much medication. But since she was in some pretty severe pain this morning, that tells me that the left side is pretty bad. Dr. Fox said that it is still too early to answer 'why' that is, but we would love for you to pray. Liza is also worried that the original symptoms that brought us into surgery will appear. Pray that that doesn't happen, going back to our request at the bottom of the very first post. We really want this to be it and for normal life to return for Liza. Even more, we are hoping and praying that she will feel like a new woman, younger, larger range of motion, better balance, etc. (less irritable - kidding again). So pray for Liza as you read this and we'll write again from the comfort of home.

Hello Liza, you must be on your way home right now. I'm praying for you dearest, standing against anxiety, fear and pain. You know the scripture, God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind, and that is the truth. Kiss your babies and rest when you get home... Aunty Nineee says. We all love you, Janine

You all haven't left my mind this week. Haven't known what to say, but I've been here praying.
