UPDATE - Sorta:-)

Well, they don't know the results of the scan, officially, but the word amongst the nurses is the ulcers are healing well. Karen and he both think his doc will probably want to wait a couple more days before starting the rat poison (coumadin) so, he may still be there for Christmas. They both sounded upbeat about it and said they'd just bring Christmas to the hospital. Pat's bored and frustrated that he can't be home to do some shopping online, so I told him "Santa" had already done some, not to worry. (You know who you are!)

Anywho, that's the news for today. I will probably call him again on Wednesday and post what's what, then.

Thanks, again, folks. You are all really special and incredible friends.
