Tuesday - Well, the doctor was correct - Dad is not ready to leave the hospital yet. . . wait, let me put that another way - The Doctor is not ready to release Dad, yet! That's more like it. He is still having blood counts too high/too low and is receiving some IV fluids again. He is exercising his arms with small weights and doing leg exercises. He is building stamina very quickly! The guy in the room with him has gone home, so Dad's room is quiet now. This helps him get some rest at night. Denise took Mike home and she has returned to help us out up here in the Burg. It is nice to have someone with Dad all during the day because the sad truth is the nursing staff is stretched pretty thin and no one will care for Dad like we will! We need a watchful eye at all times. . . So that's the latest for today. It is likely that Dad will not be released tomorrow either - Maybe Thursday. We are so happy to have everyone sending him good thoughts and well wishes. He appreciates it, too. Although, he is still not ready for visitors. More tomorrow. . .
