Papa Shu Is Coming Home

Today is a big day in our family. Papa Shu is coming home after being in the hospital and rehab center for a year! Last April Papa Shu had a LVAD (heart device) put in as a bridge to transplant and it has taken him a while to get well enough to come home.

Last night, we did a "trial run" with and took him to dinner at Steak n Shake. Which went pretty well, though MawMaw apparently takes the corners a little to fast-per Papa Shu. John seemed to enjoy being out and really enjoyed having dinner that was not institutional grade (though I hear he likes that kind of food).

For those that know Papa Shu's humor- So last night when Mawmaw wheeled Papa Shu out to the van and opened the door- he remarks "Phew, it smells like our car in there."

So feel free to call him @ home!
