That's how sure Dr F is that we get to go home today.  Home will be better, but it will come with challenges.
In PT he got to walk the stairs and he did that so great.  Building up his lung capacity again is going to be so important in feeling better.  Two days ago I wondered if he was ever going to be able to walk stairs again.  It's going to be slow, and we just have to keep at it....but he is so determined to make it happen.
I am excited that he is coming home.  We can start to be a family again, and after 11 days of being in the hospital that will be nice.  I am also very nervous because last time he was at this house he left on a strecher.  That memory is still very raw for me because it was so traumatic.  Yes, we did everything right, but that does not erase watching someone have a heart attack while you wait for EMS to arrive.
The reality is it can happen again.  All we can do, and all each of you reading this can do, is to prepare yourself in case it happens to you.
Get some quick dissolve aspirin and keep it in a place away from other meds where you know where it is all the time.  Ours was in the nightstand.
Have a back up plan to call 911 if your cell won't connect.
Know your neighbors...especially if you have young children.
Prevention of this happening again will have to be our focus as we cannot undo what has been done. I am confident that we can make the changes necessary to continue living full and happy lives.  Today will be hard, but at least we have it together.
