Finally discharged on June 9. I was a little nervous about doing the whole recovery thing alone, without the helpful nurses. This is me, trying to catch some shuteye:

We stayed close to the hotel for the first couple of days, but we did venture out for meals. We met "Big Rodney" who is a homeless man who hangs around the medical center. Really nice man! Next time we go, we will get a picture with him. We also walked around Texas Children's Hospital looking for Dr. Jen from TLC's "Little Couple." We never did find her.

We were scheduled to go home on Thursday, June 11, again thanks to Angel Flight. However, one of their rules is that the patient has to be able to step up onto the wing of the plane, and hunch over in order to get into the back seat. Savy's pain level was too great for this, and who can lift a 13 year old girl with 10 lbs of metal attached to her arm? Thanks to Paula F and her husband for getting us buddy passes to fly home on Southwest! We weren't able to get onto any flights on Friday, so we had to go to the airport hilton for the night.
I can't believe that Hilton would put their name on the hotel we stayed at. I'll just leave it at that. Our luggage had been sent on to Phoenix, so we had to sleep in our clothes. It was like camping, but in a really dangerous naeighborhood! Another great adventure!
