Good morning!
No new pictures this morning, but I'm sure there will be more later today.
Dad had a good night. Once he got comfortable enough to fall asleep, he got some good sleep. He's already been up, washed, shaved, brushed his teeth, and had breakfast this morning. He is waiting for his next pain medication to come because he wants to go walking again.
The doctor said that Dad is doing great. His chart looks wonderful. She said she would send him home today if they didn't have to monitor the coumadin for the next couple of days. She is expecting to take the rest of tubes out today.
Dad's looking a little worn out this morning; probably a combination of things. He is most likely exhausted, and they are stepping him down off the pain meds. They are trying to get him on the med schedule that he'll keep once he goes home. I'm sure the effects of the general anesthetic are nearing their end as well. He seems to be in a little more pain, but he's handling it like a champ. His spirits are still pretty high.
Have a wonderful day!
