Thank you

Unread post by Johnny Mac »

I wanted to thank you all again for the well wishes and support while my wife was battling COVID.

She finally came home today. The past five weeks were in the hospital's rehab wing where she started out barely able to move her hands on day 1 to being able to walk across the house this afternoon, albeit with a walker.

I think Mercy Hospital in Miami chalked her up in the 'W' column. Not a lot of people who reached the point she had on a ventilator ended up walking out of the hospital during this pandemic.

In related news... my "vacation" is over!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Happy to hear she's back home and I hope strong enough to give you a "honeydo" list. :-) :-) :-)

Great news! That's scary stuff just to read, I can't imagine what it was like dealing with that on a daily basis.

This news made me so happy. Been thinking about her every time I saw you post

That's just amazing news. Glad she's done so well and continued good wishes for her continued recovery. Just let us know if we need to start a COVID juju thread to speed it along. :wink:

a couple more days of "nagging" like "those shades aren't even" or "stop yelling at our daughter" and I may ask for a juju thread!! :evil: :evil:

once again, I appreciate all of you and your support.. we may bicker about stupid things but when it became "real" you were a great "family" for me

That is great news. I hope she has a speedy and full recovery. Perhaps this will give yall an appreciation for each others company over the next 20, 30, 40 years(i have non idea how old you are) that may have not been there otherwise.

I echo everybody's sentiments. I'm very happy to hear the good news. I really appreciate you sharing her story as nobody on this site can now claim they don't know anybody that was effected by COVID. Maybe it will change a mind or two.
