Today mom got to go home. She was very excited and ready to be in some familiar surroundings.
We were not discharged until around 3:00 this afternoon. My dad left the hospital earlier in the day to be at home to receive the supplies provided by hospice. Dad had to move around some of the furniture in our family room to make space for the bed.
Mom was taken home in an ambulance. This was her first time in one. Before the trip, she was given some pain medication to make the trip a little easier. As we were leaving the hospital, she told me that when we got home she wanted to go to bed and sleep. :) What's funny is that is exactly what she did.
After we arrived at the house, a member of the hospice team came out to check over mom and to bring us some final supplies. Her hospice nurse will be coming tomorrow to let us know what her schedule will be and to make sure mom is comfortable.
