Glad to be home! But why does it take so long to get discharged from the hospital? When the docs did their rounds, they told us we could leave if Josh did well with breakfast (no throwing up). That was 7:30 a.m. We didn't get out of there until nearly 1 p.m. And supposedly all we were waiting for was someone in pharmacy to talk to us about the meds (he didn't tell us anything we didn't know) and give us our discharge orders (which took about 5 minutes).

At least we only had a 20 minute drive home, but it would have been much nicer to get out of there around 9 a.m. That seems reasonable to me.

Today Josh is doing really well. He has some pain, but we're managing that with Motrin--and occasionally tylenol w/codeine. He is much happier at home.
