Wednesday...

Another tube out! The nose drain popped out this morning and they decided to leave it out for a while. He may have to have it put back in tomorrow, we'll see. As it has been, he's been in good spirits, but he's a little worn out. Got up out of the bed several times today to sit in the chair. His blood pressure has been a little low so they hooked up another bag of fluid to his central line. Right now he's nothing but skin and bones, we need to fatten this guy up some when he can eat again! Dr. V told him they sent the tumor to Johns Hopkins for diagnosis, seems the lab here can't figure out what it is.....

Thanks for all your comments and good wishes, prayers. I tell him you're all asking about him. I went back to work today so didn't get to see him until around 3:30. Working tomorrow and Friday. Taking Mom and Dad to the airport Saturday morning, they are going to California to see Ryan (Buddy's oldest) graduate from high school. Way to go Ryan! Wish we could be there. And congrats to Kayla and Noah who are getting married Saturday, wish we could be with you all too. Say hi to Michael and wife for us.

Sounds like he is making great progress. Hope you get the test results soon.
