Heart Bypass Surgery

I've just looked at the update site and saw this message from Friday. We should be planning a welcome back party! Sylvia 29-Aug-03 01:23 PM - Jim Raber : 8/29/03 1:05 PM We have a slight delay in getting out of here but not a serious one. They started Ramona on some new medicines last night and want to give her 24 hours to make sure they are working correctly. The doctors have signed the paperwork to dismiss her at 8:00 AM tomorrow unless there is something they don't expect. My plans are to be here checked out of the hotel and ready to travel so we can begin the trek home. We hope to have a leisurely drive tomorrow and still make home by dinner time Sunday evening. All her medicines are not oral so they have taken the last of the IV lines out. This is a relief to her. She was disappointed in not getting out today but this is for the best. I'm eager to get her home but only when everything is the way the doctors want it. We've had a long climb up this hill and we want to do whatever is necessary. My next update will hopefully be from home on Monday. By then Ramona can sit down at the computer and do her own. I am grateful for all your prayers and concerns. With all that was done on her heart and with the condition she was in when we arrived, this is indeed a gift of God.
