It's damn good to be home though! Here's some pics of the last model I finished in the hospital. It's a '69 Chevy Chevelle.

No Place Like Home
Freed of my hospital prison walls, I am finally home after my 20 day stint at the University of Chicago. It feels so good to be back behind my own walls, on my own couch, and eating/drinking my own food. I'm very tired still and weak from the transplant. It's amazing how little activities require so much energy. (i.e., getting dressed in the morning; taking a shower; fixing a meal for myself.) It's the little things that I once took for granted that are now remarkable feats that I have to conquer daily. I'm still getting winded and my heart feels like its going to explode after a few minutes of activity. So, I rest and nap when I can, until my strength returns.

Welcome home. It has to feel good to be home again. I agree, there is no place like home.

I like the Chevelle, you can not beat a classic muscle car.Welcome back!! I still haven't seen a model of a mini cooper or vw bug yet, so I will keep checking for those. Now those are cars!! Forget those big gas hogs!

I am sure that the napping and resting will help you build yourself back up. I know that is what my excuse is when someone finds me "resting" in the office :) Don't try to hurry things along, it will all happen for you!

steven is very tired after these last 5 days of chemo. We had a busy day today, had people over for lunch and then my folks came over for tea. So we have both collapsed into bed now! When do you have to go back and have blood tests?
Am sure you are hugely relieved to be back in your own space with your own 'stuff'. Enjoy, love alison and steven
