April 16th 2008 Wednesday - I got busted again this morning for taking photos in the Hospital .. at about 08:30 am Betty was wheeled down to the Second Floor to have her Ultra Sound done .. I was able to be in the Ultra Sound Room during Betty's procedure .. it was most interesting and yes I did take photos .. after Betty made it back to her Room we waited for the results .. while we were waiting I talked a Technician into taking me to the Cath Lab where Betty had her Procedure on Monday .. once there I talked a Doctor into a tour of the Cath Lab and the Support area .. six of the photos below are from there .. it is really a high tech area .. at about 03:00 pm we got word from the Doctors that Betty's Ultra Sound came thru just fine and they said that after one more night of observation Betty can plan to return to Fort Myers in the morning .. GREAT NEWS ..
.. after dinner before Cheryl and I stopped by to see Betty I found a most delightful Ice Cream treat at the Marble Slab Creamery .. I savored it and when we got to Betty's Room I offered to 'share' it with her .. she ate the whole thing !! .. right in front of me .. well it is good to having her feel better .. I think .. ?? ..
April 17th 2008 Thursday - Cheryl and I packed up and drove to the Hospital .. once the Doctor checked out Betty and told here that he would be discharging her I headed out for Fort Myers ( about 07:00 am ) .. after Betty did get her walking papers Cheryl and Betty headed out for her home ( about 09:00 am ) .. my daughter and her family will be arriving from Wisconsin later today so once I made it to Dee Light I was busy getting ready for them ..
April 23rd 2008 Wednesday - Betty is on the 'road to recovery' .. tonight we ended up having dinner and Ice Cream with John and Mary Kay at Fort Myers Beach .. Betty's energy is down but she was able to enjoy the outing ..
