Steady as s(He) Goes...

Well, so far... so okay! In this case right now... no news, is good news. Dad made it out of the surgery okay this past week. Instead of removing his gall bladder, they put in a drain.

This has helped lower his fever, but he still needs to stabilize more. His temps have been around 100 - 101 but they need to come down a bit more. He has started to come around today and has been awake some. We just need to make his "give a d_mn switch" stays on high! After he get better from this he should be able to start speech therapy again! This will be a very important part of his overall recovery.

Also, a quick thanks to everyone that has had a chance to come by for a visit. This helps both mom and dad out tremendously! If you can't go by to see them, a call to mom really helps her spirits. She's been staying at the hospital now with dad for about 80 days. With just a few breaks from there, it's very hard on her, even though she won't say so... Mom's cell number is 918-397-1292. Drop her a call if you get the chance! If you can't, then email it or send it to someone she knows and have them give her a call.

Keep the prayers comin'... cause we're... "burnin' daylight!"

Love, Tony
