I am glad to report that I was able to bring Ric home late Monday afternoon.  We are all very happy that he is home where he should be.  He has 3 lil nurses at home willing to do anything for their daddy!  I think Ric will be getting a manicure in his near future...don't think he'll be fast enough to get away from them.  The manicure will go really well with his bejewelled head. 

I want to say thank you to the Symcor Family and to our wonderful friends Peter and Sarah for the yummy edible flower bouquet.  We all LOVE fruit!!!  Also thank you to Amber for the homemade rolls...which Rick is devouring.  Thank you also to Ric's mom who came to stay with girls, so I could go to visit with my wonderful husband whenever I wanted.  Sheila and Colin for your generosity with the parking pass for the hospital and gift card for Good Earth, and for all the extras.  Also a nice neighbour who came by with a wonderful meal, thank you Melanie!  Jodi and Peter who took our kids in and kept them safe when I had to take Ric into the ER.  Matt and Tara for all your wonderful gifts.   We are very blessed to have such wonderful and thoughtful friends.  You all are keeping us strong, and just appreciating where we live.

Ric's mom left today...so we are just enjoying some time together just our little family unit.  Ric is moving about slowly, but has a great appetite.  He still has his neck pain...but the meds he is on now are helping.  Ric will continue to rest up this week, and wants to get out and start walking again.  He will be getting his staples out this Friday.
