discharged from hospital

There was a record low for this day this morning,  34F was announced on TV but the locals were saying it had been 27F overnight.  The official previous record low for the day was 38F in 1925.  However, it was sunny later and warmed nicely to +14C. 
It was also a warm day for us as Dorothy was given the OK to be discharged to the hotel.  She met again with the pulmonary specialist who devised a regime of medications and some follow up processes if necessary.  We will try resting at the hotel for at least a day or two.  [I'm concerned about the air quality in the room causing problems so we will watch that aspect closely.]  Dorothy did better than could be expected in walking into the hotel.  Later we went for a bite to eat in the hotel restaurant and she felt grateful to be somewhat back into the "real world" again.

Dorothy makes a break for it to escape from the St. Lucie Medical Center

Dorothy was whisked away in a waiting maroon van and headed south on
