Sunday

Well, he is doing good but mentally he's struggling. It's tiring to watch TV all day in bed. Every time he falls asleep a nurse or doctor or technician comes in to check something. The tube in his nose that goes to the stomach slipped out an inch today and had to be put back in. That was not pleasant. Yesterday they took out the two IV's in his arms so that helps. The swelling in his hands and arms has gone done. He still has several IV lines going into the central line in his chest. Two drains in the lower abdomen. 33 staples! The incision is healing well, no redness or streaking.

I hope everyone had a good Memorial Day weekend. This is the first time in 9 years we haven't thrown our Memorial Day party for our family and neighbors. Oh well, there's always next year.....
