Day 36

Cindy had a visit from the discharge Case Manager yesterday.  She told us that patients are usually discharged after 28 days and either go to a sub-acute care facility, skilled nursing facility or home - depending on your health status.  The Case Manager asked many questions about Cindy's condition before she was admitted to the hospital, insurance questions and some other personal questions.  But my favorite question and response was the following:

Case Manager:  What religion are you?

Cindy (after a lot of thought):  Whichever one has presents.

The Case Manager also wanted to make sure she was able to contact Cindy's main support team - Rita, Mary and Debbie.  One of us is usually with Cindy at the hospital.  Here is a picture of Rita setting up shop at Cindy's bedside:

NO she di'int! After lecturing to me as children during our frequent sleepovers, about the latest sermon Cindy learned in class in shul, my mini-Rabbi now goes for the presents!
Perhaps she meant Presence? Oy!
