Journal entry by Alan Cohn —
Yes, less than 72 hours after going under anesthesia, UK Hospital released Dee, and she is sitting up in her living room, after a quick shower, surrounded by her children, the puppies. She is doing well, the ride home was not too bad, thank goodness. She is eternally grateful the the finest Surgeon, Dr. Q, best cardiologist, Dr. Booth, and they were surrounded by an awesome surgical Team, anyone would wish for.
If anyone would happen to be free and able to sit with Dee, tomorrow morning, that would be great, please let her know. Obviously, some plans were made expecting her to come home Saturday, that must be met, and I would feel better if she had company from 10 to 2.
Her spirits are great, she is thankful for being mended, so she could grow stronger than she has ever been, especially as she was spiraling down hill before surgery, and does not know the full wxtent of how good it will feel to be active, without a hole in her heart.
Thanks to all for all your words, thoughts and prayers.
