I have been discharged today. After 5 weeks of rehab and 8 weeks of eating hospital food. I'm a free person. Darren and the crew helped me with my stuff. They were the ones who actually brought me back. They helped me settle back home and were even willing to stay with me until my mother comes home. But I declined. I didn't want them here when ma came back. And I needed the time to prepare myself to meet ma again.
When she came home she didn't seem surprised or even concerned that the front door was open. No. She just simply walked in and went straight to her room. I sat on the sofa and I cried. For the first time in 8 weeks I cried like a little baby.
