So, I was over-ruled again !

Comment Published at 17:0317:0314 comments14 comments60 Visits60 VisitsReport

I suppose that none of you will be suprised to know that all of the reasons for Janice staying in hospital were overturned on appeal, and I was directed to bring her home late yesterday ! Never mind that she lied through her teeth to the doctor about her pain levels, or that the highway betweem the hospital and home was flooded after nearly 12 inches of rain fell in two days !  Or even that she can stand and she can lie down, but cannot sit !   I do not own an ambulance or a helicopter, but these obvious deficiencies of mine were not to be taken into account when the decision was taken. Just, get me home !   So, as a compliant husband, i did as I was told and the patient is now home !    So, on her behalf, I thank you all for your thoughts and good wishes, which am happy to now have transfered to me in my unlikely role of house-husband.  So far, I have managed breakfast without drama so feel sufficiently confident to contemplate a widening of my repertoire. Fortunately it is far too wet to think about hot or cold wash programmes on the white beast in the laundry, so will just hang the dirty clothes on the line and let natures own rain do the job. Have to lower my carbon imprint somehow !   i think it will be at least a few more days untill Janice feels up to a return to Minti, but I know she is thinking about you all and is very grateful for your support.  So, I will sign off and return this page to its rightful owner. Steve x

LOVELY to know she is home!

Hope the cooking is going well and the rain is doing a good job on the washing?

And I hope Janice will be well enough to spy on us soon on Minti!

YYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!  You are home!!!   Don't think you fooled the hospital, they are use to that!  So good you have a view and can get out to smell the air and see your critters and are home with Steve. Things will be back to normal in no time!  Sending good vibes Sweety.... keep Steve hopping, he needs the practice until he can master this stuff!  He needs to expand from just golf and outside work.  Yes Steve... even to ironing!  But then you need clean dry things to iron.

Re: So, I was over-ruled again !

am glad she is home. I found even though 2 kids, home was a better place to rest and heal as I felt better and more comfortable.

I hope the rain eases up for you so you can tackle that washing. but putting it on the line now dose seem like a great idea. must admit my hubby dose that in the winter with the kids blankets and then will wash them and put them in the dryer. LOL

give her my love.

Re: So, I was over-ruled again !

Now why was I not surprised to read this..............

To be honest, I can't say that I blame her, there is nothing better than recovering in your own home

As much as I want to form a  "Do" and "Don't" list for Janice to strictly follow, starting with "Do allow nature to heal your body at the right pace and Do Rest............." All the usuals basically

I'm fairly confident that Janice knows her body pretty well and knows first hand what works for her in healing. So I trust her instincts in recovery, that she won't push herself and will take appropriate recovery process and timing

Much love to you both

Re: So, I was over-ruled again !

Another great blog first thing in the morning for me. It is 7 am and  I turned first on your page to see your news !! GREAT !! !But, go very careful and give the orders to Steve, by starting your sentences with a few "ooohhhhs and ouches" he will then run to you with " Anything I can do darling" Then tell him you are hungry or that you want a drink or whatever, it works wonders !!!!!!!

Being serious Janice I know Steve will take care of you the best he can, but don't rush things to get up and about too soon, enjoy the sympathy of us all and be good for  Steve

Lots of love to you both Pauline

Tell Janice from me she's a naughty girl for causing her nice husband so much worry!

I can't bear the thought of your dirty washing on the line in the rain, so I will leave you to it and wish you luck!

Love Naomi

Re: So, I was over-ruled again !

Steve I love that idea for the washing the only thing is how do you dry it after It's clean oh! i know put it under the trees and the wind will dry in no time or it might end up down the bottom of the yard.So glad you are home but don't try too hard to do things the pain will be really bad but you can talk your way through this you are strong but keep taking the pills for a little while longer ( I know you hate pils) just do it!!!!   bigs hugs to you Steve I'm sure you are getting a lot from Janice but we can give you some to keep safe love ya! both Vicki
