Dearest family and friends,
If this is a little "over the top" I'm sorry but I have my roommate home tonight. My tenure appears to have come to an end as the beautiful Mrs. Steinle has returned to the comforts of home today. She still has a long way to go and we do not know what the future holds as we have not received the pathology reports, but she will be sleeping in her own bed tonight and for right now we are holding onto that as tightly as we can. It is really good to be able to put this in the rear-view mirror. By the way, you are cautioned not to try this at home by yourselves…God has been working overtime and he needs a little rest.
Our praises to the staff at Froedtert…a world class facility in our backyard. Everyone was fantastic and I won’t embarrass her, but one lady in particular will have a special place in our hearts forever.
Thank you one and all (if they need a testimonial, I'm there!). We are forever indebted. Lynn and I are so very blessed to have such beautiful family and friends.
Our daily entries will temporarily end (unless you think I have a future at this) but we will update periodically as the journey continues. We will let you know the pathology results when we get them and the treatment plan for the future. We are thinking six weeks until chemo starts. Remember, no news is good news so if there is nothing here, it is good!
As I said, Lynn needs rest so please, no visitors. Also, it is very important to keep her as healthy as we can…since we have jumped into the digital age, maybe a web cam???
As far as flowers, I think everyone knows how much we love flowers but we don't know where to put them any more...everyone is way too kind...a donation to your favorite person or agency in need?
Pop the champagne, dance in the street…
God bless you all!
Lynn and Tim

ReplyDeleteI thought they said you'd be there a week!! You just keep on amazing those doctors! I'm so happy you are sleeping in your own bed tonight next to the love of your life. Now your job is to rest, rest, rest, while all of us well wishers keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers everyday.
Much love,

Hi Lynn,
ReplyDeleteI can't believe that you had a lung removed on monday and you are home recuperating on friday. You are right, miracles are happening all of the time. Rest and take care of the person name Lynn Steinle.

Oh Lynn I am so thrilled to hear that you are home! I just talked to our wonderful neighbor, Mary and she told me about your blog!
ReplyDeleteI am so thrilled that you were at Froedtert because then I know you were well taken of! I hope you had the same experience as I did, everyone was and continues to be so great there! Once you get all healed and rested, I would love to talk and see what surgeon you had and who you will be seeing going forward! I am sorry for what you have had to go through and what will continue to be your new adventure but I know you will go through it well and also know that Froedtert is the place to be!
Take care of yourself and I know that Tim will help with that, as will all of your wonderful friends! I'll stay in touch this way and also through Mary!
Take care! Love, Kelly (and Brooks & Ben too!)

I'm sure that welcome home hardly describes how glad you must be to be back in your nest. Best wishes and every good thing in your recovery. You have a permanent place on the prayer list!
ReplyDeleteTake care and listen to your health care team!

I posted on the wrong date! I'm sure welcome home hardly describes how great it must be to be back in your nest to rest and recover. Congratulations on doing so wonderfully well. You have a permanent place on the prayer list!

May your robe and slippers be just as you remember...I'll be checking frequently to see when you get the web cam up. Lots and lots of hugs, Cathy McVey
ReplyDeleteHello Lynn!
ReplyDeleteWe heard the news and have been following the blog (which is great by the way, good job, Tim!). Our thoughts and prayers have been with you everyday since we heard the news (even from D way over in Pakistan!)
We are so happy you are doing so well, especially so soon! Anyone who knows you knows the fight in you, and you will not lose. You go girl! Glad you're back home, heal quickly!
Love ya,
Kathy & D O'Lochlayne
Hey Lynn,
