That's a Wrap!

Are you sitting down? KIM IS BEING RELEASED FROM THE HOSPITAL TODAY!!! That's right -- two days removed from brain surgery -- doctors are so pleased with her recovery that she's been cleared to go home today. That's a testament to her good health, her drive, her strength, her faith and all of your prayers and words of encouragement. Her head wrap was removed eary today, so now we can see her wound and staples. Sorry... again, no pictures. An occupational therapist is talking with her now, going over what she's allowed to do, her limitations, and helping her wash her hair. Dr. Weingart, her neurosurgeon, spoke with us all a moment ago and expressed his pleasure with her recovery (as much as a surgeon can display pleasure in their deadpan, monotone way). There's still paperwork to be filled out, packing bags, gathering balloons and magazines, but we should be out of here in a couple of hours. Kim will chill at the hotel for the next several days... getting out and walking around when she feels like it... and the surgeon will remove her staples next Tuesday. She'll be back home in Atlanta a week from today. The next post you read will probably be from Kim herself. Take care everyone!
