Leaving the Hospital

This morning we met with Dr. Pluhar and went over all the drugs Jake will be taking.  He's got quite the list of drugs.  She went over everything and answered all ours questions.  Once we were all comfortable she went to retrieve him from the ICU.  When they turned the corner and he saw Jenn and I he got very excited.  He started shaking in her hands and gave us big kisses just like he used to.  We were very happy to see him react this way to us.  Once we got him dressed to go we said our goodbyes, really "see you laters", to Dr. Pluhar and headed back to the hotel where we are now relaxing.

We couldn't be happier with Dr. Pluhar and all the staff at the University.  She did such an excellent job with the surgery and treated Jake like one of her own afterwards.  She stayed with him during the day, even letting him sit on her lap as she worked.  We couldn't be more grateful for this.  Tomorrow we head off back home.  We hope to leave early in the morning and get to the Cleveland area before we stop for the night.
