We said goodby to mom and dad today with tears in our eyes. They've been such an amazing support and help to us the last 2 weeks, we couldn't have done this without them! We will miss them like crazy!! Doug had his first outing today as I had to drive him to the doctor's to have his cumadin(sp?) level in his blood checked. I felt like his chauffeur since he has to sit in the back seat, away from the airbag, for I think 2 weeks, maybe more.=) The outing pretty much wore him out. (Sometimes he has to sit down after walking just from our bedroom to the living room before he can continue to the family room.) His level was 2 and they want it to be 2.5 - 3.5. It actually is rat poison designed to kill the Vitamin K in his system. The doctor actually said that! I am counting down the days to when we can say 'bye-bye' to Warfarin.
