The cardioversion worked this morning! Chris's heart rate is back to normal sinus. We are on target to be discharged and then return to Kentucky on Tuesday. Margaret, a family friend in Illinois, is working on getting us return reservations to the Bluegrass. I tried, but it is mind boggling when you are doing it here and there and others are waiting for the computer station. Chris can walk around the room unaided, he took a shower and is now resting comfortably in his UK Wildcats flannel pants. His oxygen level is now down to 2 liters -we came her on 4 liters. Eventually he will probably not need the supplemental oxygen at all. It has been a big day so far and I am sure there is more to come. I'll post again this evening. Take Care. Mary Jo

Evening update: We had a quiet day, Chris rested and so did I. My hotel had a homemade Thanksgiving dinner for the residents this evening. It was wondrful-not as good as home, but very good. Tomorrow I will have turkey again with Chris. We will be back in Kentucky late Tuesday night-yea!

We are so excited that Chris is doing so well. We know what you all are thankful for this year. We wish you weren't up in Rochester for Thanksgiving but know we are with you in spirit. We will toast to Chris's continued recovery and good health at our Thanksgiving celebration. We love & miss you!

Meg, Casey, Jess, Joey and Jack
