We got home safe and sound!!! We are so happy to be here... Tim had for lunch what he wanted :-) not what they were giving him. I bought him an apple pie for dessert tonight! Can't wait to make it for him. My mom is still here and will be leaving tomorrow. Tim's parents will be here through Thanksgiving, it will be nice to not have a stressful holiday so soon after the surgery.
Tim is in great spirits and looks pretty darn good. His pain currently is a one which is amazing, or the Vicodin is still in effect, not exactly sure which.
Next, we go back down Monday night December 8th for the surgery on the 9th for the doctors to implant the "battery" module in his chest and to connect the wires into the brain. That is an outpatient procedure, so we will be home the night of the 9th. We then go back on the 11th to have the device turned on and programmed. That will be the most exciting day over the past many years we will be experiencing together. We will ask all of you to have fingers and toes crossed that day...
Again, thank you all for your prayers and thoughts.
I will post again tomorrow with an update.

Second try- lost last comment... glad to hear all is well with Tim- maybe you can get some good rest now.. I think it's wonderful Arlene and Don will be with you for Thanksgiving- you have so much to be thankful for. Hope you are having some good weather- we've started winter much too early here!
