Wisdom....Flatulance....often hard to tell them apart...except for the smell and even some "wisdom" stinks to high heavens. Hope Kat reads this and laughs.

Well, shows what I know............

The hospital and the Docs have sent kat home! I don't think she feels up to being home yet but it seems the way of things. I do my damndest to be sent home asap and have to fight with them over details, sometimes for days! Kat was figuring on a bit more time plus a bit more for Roger to get ready for all this too, but.......She's home!

Kat, I am sending you my best mojo to BOTH you and Roger. Hopefully there might be some home health follow up(?) or something and some ways to help out.   All I have is that and the wish I lived closer. I think a lot of us on this thread feel that way too.

Remember a dozen years back when we laughed about forming a real village? There were several threads along those lines and all, no matter how funny, sure as hell had a grain or two of truth at their core. Think I'll go find one later.

They send you home when you shouldn't go, and won't let you out when you don't need to be in. I think it comes down to insurance more than anything.

Kat rest easy and heal. It won't be fast enough for you. I don't think it's fast enough for anyone, but healing will come.

That is a gorgeous and restful video Jeri linked to.

I'm sure the cats and dogs will be happy to have you back and you might find some quality cuddles from the troops once you're home, and I think there is great therapeutic value in that. Rog not having to make so many trips for hospital stuff has to be a relief, as does the care by someone who knows you and can better anticipate requests. I think that though you're home earlier than you expected you'll relax and heal a lot faster.

Spring is just around the corner - enjoy the longer days and get some sunshine if you can. And listen to good music - you must have quite a few Mudcat CDs there to enjoy. It'll all add up to good health sooner than you think.

I remember once on a tour of our local croft museum the man was showing us carding and weaving, at one point he cut a length of the spun yarn and handed it round everyone pulled and picked at it in their curiosity till it fell apart. One person pointed out how fragile the strand of yarn was, how easily it was pulled apart and unravelled.

The auld lad guiding us round nodded acknowledgement of what had been said. He then pointed out that when that frail thread was woven together with all the other frail threads it made a fine blanket strong enough that we could toss someone up in the air and safely catch them. That is the wonder of Mudcat individually we may be weak but when we come together to become the Mudcat blanket the strength and warmth we generate spreads like sunshine round the world.

Rojer Kat and Pat and family take care of yourselves be wise and suck up the frustration of heeling.

Kat said she'd gottten a good night's sleep for a change and they were doing okay with home health care and that Roger was helping with the dressing change as well. All in all much better sounding today. She may not be posting yet for awhile but she does read and told me she had some rest and relief feeling the good vibes from here, thinking of all of you......

Being on the recipient end gives you a warmth in knowing others care. Outside of that I find it hard to explain! Thing is, that knowledge is very important and makes it better.

I just realized my last post (coupla days ago) never showed up. But I guess that's okay -- a card is in the mail and it's heading to your home address and not the hospital.

Still keeping you snug in my thoughts, Kat. Hope we get a chance to talk one of these days, too.
