Welcome Home!

After picking up his medication from the hospital pharmacy, Michael was able to return home! The grand entrance happened around 4:30 p.m. on Friday, November 5th which was Day Nine post-surgery. The highlight of his first evening home was dinner with the family & a hot shower!

Prior to being released from the hospital, staff had to ensure he was well-versed in taking his anti-rejection medications. Along with information in the heart transplant manual [yes, there is such a thing!], Michael had to watch a video on accessing Easy Call [heart transplant staff/patient communication line] and demonstrate knowledge of administering his own medications.

Big plans for today...having the luxury of lounging at home! Shouldn't every Saturday allow that?

Big smiles : )
