Sis is home
Sis came home around 2 PM yesterday. She is restricted from climbing the stairs in her house for a couple of days. She's also restricted from driving her car for about a week. After that, though, she can do whatever she feels like doing! She's sore at the surgical site, but otherwise feeling pretty good.
She doesn't have any damage to her heart muscle. They caught this problem (the blocked artery) before she had an actual heart attack. While they were "in there", they also did a balloon treatment to another artery that showed some blockage.
Thank you all for your prayers and kind thoughts for Sis.

Ann - I'm so glad to hear that your sister is back home and that everything's okay. That's a relief!
As for moving, although it is a lot of work, and would be a big change, I think it is something that you should consider. You'd be closer to your mom and sister, and that alone is a big plus. As you said, you'd feel a lot more rested and I think you'd also feel a lot more...hmmm...what's the word I'm looking for..."settled"? Not exactly the word I'm searching for, but I think that having family around just makes the everyday struggles easier to handle.
I know you have your kids around you where you are now, but they're growing up and you don't get to see them as much as you did in the past, I'm sure (at least it seems that way from your postings). And it's different having children nearby(who still expect you to "parent" them and be the "responsible one", no matter how old they are), and having family you grew up with nearby to talk to and spend time with.
It's a big decision, Ann, and I'll pray that the "right" decision is made clear to you.
In the meantime, enjoy your time off, and the end of March (with it's promise of more time off) is not that far away!
Take care,
Lizzy
