Update on Patti

Sorry to disappoint those of you who are expecting a Half-Danish/Half-English post from Patti´s "guest blogger"....but tonight is all ENGELSK! :o)


I just got home a few minutes ago from Viborg and am happy to report that I left Patti ,AKA PING, smiling and eating a roll with "smør og ost" as ALL bread products in Denmark are served! It was a long day for Patti as Ole and I sent her off with 2 very YOUNG nurses at 12.45 and we did not see her again until 7.15 tonight. Her recovery took a bit longer than the expected 2 hours, but I think it was just Patti´s body way of forcing her to rest after such a huge trauma.

We did not get to talk to the surgeon tonight, but hopefully by the time I go back to Viborg tomorrow, we will have more news that I can share with you from the doctor.

The plan is that sometime tomorrow she will be moved to the "Patienthotellet"... this fancy "Halfway House" (Patti´s term!!) which is where you have your recovery before you go home. She should be there 3 to 5 days. It is a very fancy looking building that is part of the Viborg hospital and I cannot wait to see it in person! (And yes, I warned Patti that I am bringing the camera tomorrow!)

So thank you all for your love and prayers and good wishes all day. I know she felt them and I can tell you all that Ole and I did as well as we waited.

Good night to our blogger friends. It just amazes me that our tiny little blogs have connected us the way that they have..... especially at times like this when we need each other so much.

Hugs from Patti (and the guest blogger too!)
