Not too much to add this morning, but David's in a regular room and I wanted to let the folks who've been asking know where they've moved him, Room 5307. If you wanted to visit and have any trouble finding us, call my cell, 862-6906.
He's doing great from the surgery, but he's still uncomfortable due to his bowels. We hope to have some help for that a little later. He's also a little disappointed that he's not quite ready to go home. We are thrilled as there's a possibility of him going home tomorrow! I wasn't here quite early enough to talk to the doctor, but Mandy said he thought that might be a possibility. I guess when PT comes around today to try him in the chair, we'll know how that part of it goes. I'm not sure he's quite ready for the 30 minute ride home - though we still pinch ourselves whenever we have to transport him in his new van, how very smooth and comfortable it makes our lives.
Mandy stayed with him last night and said he slept through the night (except for having to stir him when the nurse came by). Can you imagine! In all these years of no sleeping through the night, I wasn't even here to enjoy it :-) I'm not surprised - his sister has no doubt speeded his recovery time and surely added to his comfort---so, so thankful for her.
One of us will try to update at the end of the day.
