Tonight is our last night here at the Cleveland Clinic hospital. Alex was hooked up early to his TPN, so he will be off of that before 9:00 a.m. Our flight does not leave until 5:00, but we will land just before 6:30 due to the time change (and direct flight!). We are looking forward to snuggling into our own comfy bed that neither rolls away nor inflates/deflates with every movement.
Alex spent most of the day resting and feeling very hungry. Not eating really stinks. We did take a trip up to the "rooftop pavilion" tonight while he was unhooked from all his IVs. It is located at the very top of the clinic's newest building and is lined with ceiling to floor windows along one side. Through those windows, you are able to see the entire Cleveland skyline with Lake Erie in the background. It is a breathtaking view to say the least! I was able to "namaste" my stress away up there earlier during one of the clinic's nightly yoga classes. That did mean that I missed Alex's visit by the clinic's therapy dog. He said it was a lot like the dog visit we had at Shawnee Mission, but it was tough to compare to "Hawk", the Samoyed from KC. :)
We cannot wait to get back to Kansas City! We hear that we are bringing the cold, snowy weather back with us... It may not be warmer, but we will still be glad to be home!

Well, here in icy Oklahoma, it is now Wednesday and I assume you are home! Hope your trip was uneventful and smooth. Sun is shining here today so that is good. Hope you are not too tired from your trip, Alex. Continue to lift you both up in prayer for energy, strength, safety and healing. Hugs to you both, Love, Nancy
I am so happy you two are coming back home. You both have been in my prayers. God bless you!
