We are home!! Yeah! Yeah! We left Chicago about 9:45am this morning (Wednesday) and arrived in St. Louis about 4:30pm. Needless to say everyone is tired, but the trip home went very smoothly and all are safe. Six days in the hospital ended up being a lot, but overall things went well. My pain is still manageable and I am looking forward to sleeping in my own bed (finally) tonight - nothing like your own pillow! My appetite is still pretty minimal, but that should improve with time.
Mom will return to work tomorrow. I will spend the next few days resting at home. Stitches come out on Monday morning at my first post-op appointment with the St. Louis surgeon. (Came home in a white cast that goes almost to the knee.)
Will write more in the days ahead .... many thanks for your prayers!

Jenny! Glad to hear that you got to rest in your own bed. That is so HUGE! How can we be so attached to something so, well, I don't know: inanimate? Ah, well! It's true: there's no place like home! Praying for your freedom from pain, good report at your post-op visit, good rest, and return of your appetite. You're in our thoughts, my friend! Isaac even piped in, in his own little 3-year old way, and prayed for Jenny's foot in his bedtime prayers last night. It was cute! Big hug! The Joback family
