Dad is going in for his "Flap" Surgery! (finally)
This will help in healing of his bed sore. It is a major procedure and will be complete under anesthesia. It should take 2 hours or longer and is a critical step in his recovery process.
His nutrition levels have improved enough to allow the surgery. Dad's strength is pretty good, as Peggy said today..."Dad's grip is so strong I can't pull my fingers out of his hands"
I'll post an update after the operation.
Here at the hospital today is:
Mom, Gail, Peggy, (me, Tony), Jeri Marie Brewster (cousin) and Bobbie Brewster (Lonnies wife)

Glad to hear the surgery was a success and you are back in your room. Don't know when we can make it that way, but hopefully soon.
