We made it home
Jackie is on what's called a Gastropareisis Nutrition Therapy Diet. This is for 6 weeks, and then we will reevaluate with her doctors and team.
She is also on several medicines for her stomach, nausea, and also two insulins and a new pill.
👊
These next few weeks will be a constant change and challenge into the upcoming months. There will be lots of emotions and bravery required for this journey.
💜
Please continue to pray for both Jackie and myself and for all those on her care team in the next 90 days.
Jackie will still finish her degree and anything else she puts her mind to do. She is just taking it day by day. I'm grateful to be by her side and to be loved by her. Jackie's constant love, support, humor, resilience, and faith all strengthen me through the hard times. This is likely the last big update for the week. We are both very tired. We'll post again in a day or two. Love you all.

UPDATE: This is Tarl.
I will be taking my forever bride home today. Jackie is being discharged with a detailed plan for food, diet, and care regimen. We have a health team in place with weekly appointments and a 90-day plan for improvement. This is a journey toward recovery rather than a full timeline for remission.
💜
There has been a lot of damage from reflux and GERD, so the plan is to heal and move toward recovery. This is not simply a diabetes issue. We have to retrain Jackie's stomach to hold down food and function properly.
👊
Gastropareisis has caused a paralysis of Jackie's stomach, which means healing and retraining it to keep food down so Jackie's can get nutrients, vitamins, and minerals. It is also a process to get rehydrated and keep fluids down. It's a life-threatening issue. Simple solutions didn't work. It has taken specific knowledge by trained specialists to cut through the noise and help us see the path that leads to recovery.
We are grateful for the support we have received and for the knowledgeable specialists who have helped us. Today begins a new chapter in our life together
