Visitors
After having spent a great afternoon practicing trache-care skills, getting cleaned up, rested, and gaining some confidence, I spotted Allan in all his Laker sweatpants glory standing outside of my ICU room. I couldn't believe my eyes. Especially considering how much he hates hospitals.
He and Ali came for a visit and I went from feeling 100% better to 300% better. Romain Clifton from Social Services came by as well, and was able to meet some of the folks she's been reading about on the blog. I love them so much. They came at a perfect time, too. I was feeling much stronger and I was able to ease their worrying. Of course, they tried to score meds when my morphine showed up. I still haven't come down from their visit hours ago.
Then Agnieszka,Shabnaz, Cari and Gina stopped by after work, and I was even happier. I could've flown home because seeing everyone again really helped. I can't wait until tomorrow's visits.

I'm so glad you are feeling better Laura. You are in my thoughts and prayers. We love you -- cousin Mini.
Chuck, thank you for your post. It sounds like you're doing well, and I'm glad.
You pop into my head every time I drive up Sunset and and see Downbeat Cafe. Do you ever go there? I've only had their coffee, but the music is very cool.
You stay strong, too.
Laura
