Hip, Hip, Hooray! Chris is out of the ICU! He is in a large sunny room in the Mary Brigh "F" unit. I've hung the prayer quilt so he can see it and Chris is settled in watching a DVD. He has huge restroom and will be able to take a shower sometime tomorrow. This room also has two reclining chairs so we can both sit and be comfortable watching TV. Things are going well-he has a bit of atrial flutter-he has it before. They will do cardioversion (shock the heart into a normal rhythm) tomorrow but he is still on track to be discharged on the weekend. The nurses in the ICU took such good care of him, but we are happy to leave them behind. It is interesting-the nurse, Jody who "landed" Chris after surgery (settled him into the ICU) was his nurse this morning and moved him out of ICU. She was really glad to see him again (she's been on vacation) and to see him go. Take Care. Mary Jo

That is wonderful news. Now if the SCMS academic team can beat Royal Springs, SCMS 7th grade beat Grant County, and UK Win again in Maui, it will be a great day in Georgetown.
Love to you both,
All the Harpoles, Huttons and Cliffords.

What a wonderful day for a move. It will be a better day when that move back to KY occurs. Keep the hard work on your road of recovery. Lets hope you do well with the cardioversion and the time line continues to be arriving at the Greater Cincinnati/NKY Airport sometime Tuesday of next week. As always, in our thoughts and prayers.
