Well, I just talked to the man, himself and BOY! does he sound GOOD! Much better than the other day! He says "Hi" and "love ya."

They are just waiting for the numbers to come up to a suitable level, as they adjust his meds, and then he will be on his way home. He said probably won't make it for Mudcat Radio, as they will go to Connie's first, but it should be out of the hospital tomorrow or the next day, as long as the numbers look good.

Oh, and he got to have some Wendy's yesterday and he is off fluid restrictions, so he is MUCH happier. He actually sounded like he was chomping at the bit to get going, but of course, not pushing it.

He said the pain is just normal "I got beat up" pain and easily dealt with; he got to see each of the boys and the docs are all really pleased.

Did you know they've even replaced the valve in a 94 year old there?! Saw it on their website!

Anyhow, a couple more days and we should have him back. He's got PLENTY of material, has had the nurses in stitches with his wit and humour about the food and other things. It'll be great to hear from himself, won't it?!

Thanks,
