April 7

Note from Dave...
I've been here seven days.  Been a difficult week.  Tired but am on the mend.  I will fill you in on more details when I get home which night be as early as Wednesday afternoon.  Had my first breakfast of 6Tbls cream of wheat, 1/2 cup raspberry smoothy.  They will send me home as soon as I can eat more.
Thanks to all of you for supporting me and my family.  Keep us in your prayers.  Dave


This is Lori.  Dave's color is better and he is staying awake for longer and longer periods of time.  Doctors are watching his white blood cell count as it is up to 15.  He is on antibiotics so we are hoping that helps with any infections his body is trying to fight.
He threw up last night which was traumatic.  He is determined to get better though and so today will keep trying a tablespoon of this or that for nutrients.
He has nearly made the switch to oxycodone every four hours and off the self-medicating black button.  He has had 2 days of Physical Therapy and wants to go sit outside this afternoon.

Visitors and cards are welcome.  Please check-in at the nursing station first.  Rm 2407
