Hello,
I guess this is a sequal to Draco's thread about almost-accuarte timing.
Question:
When will my grandfather return to his home?

Background:
The question is about my grandfather on my mother's side. He had had a myocardial infarction (blood-clot blockage in a heart artery) and been admitted to the hospital about a week before. He was progressing quite well for the first couple of days, and then we had disturbing news on the 3rd day. The news were so horrible that that day I asked a horary "will my grandfather die?". I knew that he would eventually die for he's an old man, but what I meant was if he would die in this particular episode. The answer the horary gave to a no. I couldn't believe it (he was doing bad) and I thought I had interpreted the chart incorrectly. I let it go and just took it one day at a time.
Eventually my grandfather started getting better. I had an explanation from a doctor we are related to about the bad episode and how normal is was to happen at that stage. Anyway, a few days later I felt a good amount of hope that my dear grandpa could actually pull through and make it back home and that's when I thought about the horary at hand "when will he return to his home?"
I got 4 days:17hours:12minutes. That was the 23rd on 11:19 am. I didn't expect the timing to be accurate to the minute, but i did it that way anyway. He ended up coming back home on the specified date but more than 2 hours later. The ambulance that brought him home parked in front of the building between 1:26 and 1:28 pm.
He is how I arrived at my timing. Please read it carefully and tell me where you think I went wrong.
Since he is my mother's father, I use the radix 1st (the 4th from the 10th). The houses in use would then be the radix 1st (grandpa) and the radix 4th (his home). He is signified by the Sun at Capricorn 28:11. The cusp of the 4th is Scorpio 2:54, and the significator of home is Mars at Capricorn 1:19. I saw that Mars and the Sun wouldn't behold by a major aspect any time soon, and he was expected to get released from the hospital within a week, so I decided to use the cusp of the 4th because the Sun was moving to a square with it. The square made sense because he would return with difficulty (I knew we would have to use an ambulance with trained staff to bring him back) and the Sun would be in debility (he would still be in a crtical phase for 3 months).
The Sun was 4 degrees and 43 minutes away from perfecting that square with the IC. I took that to mean that he would be back after 4 days and 43/60 of a day. That is 4 days and 17.2 hours. 0.2 hours is 12 minutes. He would be backl after 4 days, 17 hours and 12 minutes. I counted from the time of the question (18 January at 6:07 pm), he was supposed to be back on the 23rd at 11:19 am. My watches are never accuarte to the minute nor are they synchronized, so I figured I'd allow a couple of minutes of deviation. The deviation turned out to be, like I said, around 2 hours as he arrived just before 1:30 pm; between 1:26 and 1:28 to be exact. While I was never happier to see an ambulance, I had already realized that my timing was way off.
where did I go wrong?
