The Magnet

As you could imagine, Nonnie and Papa are really enjoying being back home! The home health nurse came by yesterday to clean the PICC line, take vital signs and blood samples. When the nurse arrived, he was not sure who the patient was. Papa was in the back yard washing windows, where he slipped and fell to the ground. He narrowly missed injuring his eye when he got a close up view of the freshly pruned Oleander. 

It is no surprise that Nonnie was going to draw many visitors while back at home. Papa has given her a new nickname......."The Magnet". Since she has been home, Nonnie has had quite the social life! She has been busy getting caught up on the phone with family and friends and reading the messages left on the blog. Today, she had visits from Pam & Diane, Charlotte and Mary. In the morning, they are expecting Buddy & Kris to come by to visit and give Papa a hard time. 

When I spoke to Nonnie tonight, she sounded absolutely great! She told me she feels strong, both physically and emotionally. There are no test results available yet, but we expect to hear from the doctor later in the week. For now, she actually prefers to be removed from all of the doctors and nurses while she is at home.
