homeward Bound

Hello!

I am blogging from the UWMC and we have just received word that the 10-liter machine is en-route to Lynnwood and will be there by 4:30pm. Mom says, "and just when I thought I was going to get to watch the Husky stadium go up." We are packing her things and prepping for departure home. She had a raspberry mocha with breakfast, Chipotle for lunch and is feeling quite back to normal, at least with her appetite (her blood sugar says otherwise). The doctors and nurses are prepping all her meds and discharge paperwork for us to leave later this afternoon or evening. They are making sure we have 3 back up plans for oxygen at home so we can weather any natural disaster, power outage or equipment malfunction. What great technology we have access to!

Thank you to everyone for your continued support and effective prayers! As we have packed up all the flowers, cards and chocolates, we are reminded of all the love that has come through this room in the last two weeks. As we go, continue to pray for strength, continued increase in oxygen levels and lung functioning, patience for recovery and ease in settling into a new level of life activity (being home bound for awhile). If anyone wants to come hang out in Lynnwood, with Mom and Buddy, please call or text Mom at (206)354-9482. She isn't quite sure what needs will come up once she's home, but will keep Facebook and the blog posted with updates.

Love to everyone,
Jessica

  1. It was great to see Billie doing better and chowing down on chipotle today. So glad to hear your going home! Not having known about these past weeks events and then reading the blog today, we were a little shaken. Shaken, but not discouraged. I'm reminded again of what's important today. Our lord and savior Jesus Christ provides a new life with hope and unconditional love. We feel like we saw a little slice of His promise today. You (Billie & creelmans) have been so faithful, encouraging and lvoing to us. Thank you for including us in your walk with God. We love you Billie/creelmans, and are thinkful for your friendship. So, we're praying for you and look forward to getting healthy enough to figure out that hot-rod laptop you got for your birthday.
