Welcome Home!

Jason, Trix, is about to land any minute now!!! Ahhh...I am sorry, but I didn't really tell anyone that you were coming home today, liked you asked me not to. Well I told like three people, but they can't come see you yet so I figured it be ok! I am so excited that you will be back in Arlington surrounded by your family and friends!

It all started with calling the hospital on my way into Houston this afternoon. After asking the nurse to be transferred to the nurse in charge of bed #3 (the usual request) she said no one is in charge of #3. I said what? and asked for Jason. She said he wasn't there. I got so confused and had no idea what had happened. I asked her what happened to the patient in bed 3. OH! she says! He got moved to another floor (sigh of relief, I thought something bad had happened!) I got transferred to his room, and today's conversation went so much better than the last two this past week with him. First of all, he knows that I'm an OT to be not a nurse to be! An OT saw him, that is what brought this portion of the conversation up. I think I had confused him the last time on that one! He was less loopy this time and the entire conversation made sense =) Awesome! Then Jason goes, "guess what? I'm coming home!" I said really, where is home (just making sure he doesn't think he's going to China!)? He says Texas. I go are you sure, you're not just messing with me are you? At this point I really didn't know because this past week his dad said he didn't know how much longer it would be before Jason got to go back to Arlington. So I asked Jason to put him mom on the phone. It's not like I didn't believe him, I just wanted to make sure! His mom confirmed it, and Jason got back on the phone and laughed at me. Haha...I did too but I didn't want to get all excited and it wasn't going to happen. So Jason will be back home in Arlington where his family and friends are. Being home is going to be so much better for him and his parents!

Jason has said he can't wait to see everyone, but has asked that you give him some time to rest and settle in. He is doing much better, but tires quickly still. I know everyone, me too, can't wait to see him. So just wait a few days before bombarding him!

Jason, I can't come to see you right now, but I'll be in Coppell in 1.5 weeks for Thanksgiving, and I will see you then! I can't wait =)
