anne, How wonderful to hear that Daryl is home!!! You had me in tears of joy! I am so thrilled for you both. My how much you all have gone through. It is the best Christmas present ever to have your soul mate and love of your life home looking well and eating like a horse

A very Merry Christmas to you both.

anne,

what a wonderful Christmas present for you both! It is amazing how a loved one's illness can really put into perspective just what is important in life! We all need to remember to cherish every minute we have with each of our loved ones because we never know when that minute may be the last one.

I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season.

Finally! After more time than I care to think about, Daryl came home yesterday! He arrived safely yesterday afternoon and I just can't tell you how thrilled and relieved I am. He's looking GREAT! Now that the horrible nasogastric tube is out, he's eating like a horse! Just in a few hours yesterday he ate biscuits, fresh summer fruit, steak, potatoes and asparagus for dinner. I think he's loving the flavours after months of bland hospital food.

Daryl is just so glad to be home, he walked round and around just taking everything in. Secretly I think he was convinced that he might never see home again. "Everything looks so different!" he kept saying yesterday. Well, yes, the garden is blooming, there are small changes to the house, the Christmas Tree is up and there are gifts under it, "Welcome Home" banners everywhere! etc, etc.

Just to be able to roll over in bed last night and put my arm around him was enough to almost make me cry. Yes, I cried tears of joy yesterday as he sat on the bed I never thought he'd sit on again.

I'm writing this early morning, noone's awake but me. I wonder what time he'll wake today? And he won't have to fight the hospital staff to keep hold of his breakfast tray for longer than 20 minutes anymore!

Merry Christmas everyone! And yes, miracles do happen, I can swear to that!

Love
