It sounds like Joe will be home tomorrow. We thought he'd be coming home today, but he had one more med to get down, and they need to show us how to administer his TPN (food bag) at night and an antibiotic via IV. He will get these at night. His weight is up to 142, so he's gaining weight. He has been eating well and he has not had any stomach pain. Overall he is feeling better than he has in quite a while. We spent some time with him tonight and he looked very well, but is anxious to get home. He is losing his hair and has not had to shave in several days. When he gets home tomorrow we will cut his hair short so that he won't continue to "shed" so much. The boys are planning to get theirs cut too.
We heard from Matt Shafer that his Dad, Steve, has been told that he has Lung Cancer. He is feeling good though after his surgery and does not have any notable symptoms. They are playing the "waiting" game as we did a month ago,waiting for Drs to get test and make decisions. Our thoughts and prayers are with them.
