Hi Everyone, Well thank you for all your prayers. Today IS the day! Mom is finally going to be released. She is so excited she can hardly contain herself. Her port install went very well, so she's officially joined the 'Iron Man' club ;). She also got some nifty accessories to go along with her membership, including a matching bracelet, id card and a keychain! Who knew? ;) Mom is resting comfortably for a couple of hours while they watch her vital signs, but should be 'over the wall' and back at home soon. I'll keep you updated on her progress. Thank you for all your love and support. Mom has really enjoyed reading all of your comments. She is so grateful for all of you. And we are too! Love, Cresta
