See Ya Later Alligators

I was discharged on December 23rd, just in time for Christmas. The staff at the hospital asked me to walk the long way around the halls to exit, while they played Bob Marley's One Love. When I walked out the doors, all of the doctors, nurses, therapists and aides lined the hallway and hugged me and gave me gifts. I cried like a baby leaving her family. It was a super tender moment.

We drove to Orem and set up camp for a couple of weeks. I was able to spend time with my children, the Lamoreaux family, my family, and dear friends over the holidays.

Miss T and B Beck have been incredibly supportive... driving long distances to visit with me, to check up on me daily, to inspire me and motivate me. Our ward is unbelievable. Unbelievable. My work is amazing and patient. My children's school teachers have been outstanding. My family has gone way above and beyond for us!

Everything has to be re-learned. Once I do it once or twice, I seem to have it down. This includes everything, People:
Driving, showering, dressing, doing hair, buying groceries, using a debit card, changing diapers, reading, typing, turning on a computer, going to the gym, getting from point A to point B, paying bills, cooking, laundry... everything that you can imagine I have had to re-learn and it seems things come up every day. What an adventure!
