So much has happened! September 3rd, 2013 marks my mom's 25th day in the hospital. It was also the day of her official discharge! Once we heard the discharge news, I booked a flight the next morning to Los Angeles. I learned something new about last minute flights: The costs of economy and business elite converge! Plus, the 8:30am flight from Atlanta to Los Angeles was on their new Boeing 777-200 planes had flat-bed sleeps. That meant Mama Pham had a very relaxing 4 hour trip from west to east! Delta and United launched their flat-bed planes very recently for long distance domestic flights, so if you are lucky to be on a flight with those beds, it may be worth upgrading, especially if the price difference is not great. Everyone on the airport journey was great. Hanging out with the 8:30am business group, my mom rocked hat, hospital socks and flip flops. The Delta crew was fantastic and she had a very pleasant trip out west.Our appointment with her new doctor and facility at City of Hope is 11:30 am Pacific on Friday, September 6th!
