I'm out of here!!!!

Although I knew this day would finally come, I was beginning to doubt I'd ever see it!!!!! This morning the docs came by on rounds and said they were signing me out. I'm doing the happy dance!!!!

I don't know when I'll actually be heading out the door, but it will be sometime today. Probably this afternoon. I'm going to be staying in the visiting guest suite at Maggie Scarborough's lovely home. Boy, do I have good friends!

Thanks for all your cares, and help. I can't stop smiling!

Hugs,

Jennie

So stop the singing, already!

Okay... I know in previous updates, I've mentioned the need for Little Suzie to wake up (Little Suzie being my nickname for my small intestine, and waking up meaning starting to work), and I know some of y'all have been writing that you've been going around humming that song ever since I mentioned it, but this would be a good time to STOP HUMMING IT!!! Yes, I'm still in the hospital and Suzie is not only awake, but belting out copious quantities of fluid. Not good! I've been passing 3 liters of fluid and I should only be passing one. Apparently it is too active. :(

The yeast infection from hell is back, the thrush won't go away, and I have a urinary track infection, but the good news is I'm finally peeing on my own, and with luck I will be checking out TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Okay... that is contingent on my bag output slowing and thickening, but I remain forever hopeful that it will occur SOON!

Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers. I keep getting stronger every day!!!!

Feel the love,

Jennie
