Going Home...

Dr. came in this morning. Mick is the same as he was before the shunt. Dr. was hopeful from 1 thing Mick did right after surgerythat it was a sign of success; however it only happened the 1x. ...As always it's a waiting game.... Anyhow, he is going home and will go back to see the Dr. in 2 weeks along with having a CT scan done again. From that point depending on how he's been doing will decide what the next steps will be. Yesterday was a sad period for me because his personality had changed to a real crabby person; almost to the point of being rude to the nurses and me when he spoke. Rest of the night he did not speak unless it was to the nurses to answer the questions. However this morning was a happy one because he woke up saying "Goodmorning Mama".... ;0) Every once in a while he will say that and I can say how I miss it. It's a treat for me because I always feel like it's a glimmer of hope of something good to come. For all those that didn't know, Before Mick got sick that's the way he would address me in the mornings or when I would call from work to see how he's doing. All will be well; God willing.
