Mixed emotions...

Barry and I awoke from a deep sleep this morning at 12:30am for a doctor visit from Dr. Shulkins. That was not a typo, it was 12:30 AM. We were both caught off guard and struggled to wake up quickly so that we could comprehend what we were about to hear. (Dr. Shulkins was the doctor that we met the evening that Barry was admitted to the hospital who reviewed the two CAT scans from earlier in the evening when we were in the ER.) He said that the second set of pathology results were not in. He asked about Barry's mobility progress and I shared that he was up walking regularly. I told him that he still had challenges with his peripheral vision on his left side. He asked me if we wanted to go home. Barry beat me to the answer...YES. Dr. Shulkins explained that Barry would need to recover before any additional treatment would begin. He said that we would continue appointments as an outpatient. Barry is so excited about the idea of going home. Everyone keep your fingers crossed that his wish is granted and keep the prayers coming.
