On August 10th, my husband had a stroke. In an instant, my whole world as I knew it disappeared. Everything went frighteningly liquid; no firm ground, no thing to hold on to, no plan, no future, no nothing but the very panicky present moment...
And probably the only reason I can write this post, is that he is finally coming home. Tomorrow. After an unbelievable saga, practically everything but pregnancy (or at least it felt like it), mistakes, incompetence, horrible stories (and a few funny ones), and some amazing friends who helped us through it....

OMIGOSH! That is the most wonderful news! I have heard a little of the horror you have been going through via Susan . . . and I was just going to send her a note today asking how your husband is doing. As you say, nothing else matters except the fact that he is coming home. Sending hugs and prayers to you all for a very speedy, total recovery!
Oh Melanie .... the "stuff" doesn't matter. We spend so much time working, making, trying .... and in the end .... it is love that counts.
Be happy ... have a wonderful day with your Honey at home.
Blessings, good thoughts, and lots of prayers coming your way.
Oh my goodness......best wishes to you both for a speedy recovery back to normal. Golly.
So sorry to hear, good that he is coming home, take things a day at a time.
What a great pic of Bill! And what a wonderful moment for the three of you. There will be lots of celebrating (in many households). I happen to know that you absolutely ROCK in the role of advocate. We should all be so lucky to have you in our corner. xoxo
What a difficult time this has to have been for you. Wishing you much better days now that you are back home together again.
I'm sorry to hear about your husband's stroke, but very happy that he is finally coming home.
*hugs* and God bless.
My mother has survived two strokes. I pray your husband will do as well as she has. ♥
Amen and amen to everything in Susan's comment. She told me about Bill's improvement; I could hardly believe it! Doin' the Snoopy happy-dance!!!
Thank you everybody for your kind thoughts and wishes. We survived the first day home! Well, mostly. I DO wish there were 4 more of me, however.....
Hooray!!!!!! I am so so happy to hear that he is coming home. I know you saved his life many times over.
Tomorrow is day ONE!! Hooray again!!
