Here another day!

Earl is making progress. The stomach drain came out Sat. night. He was on liquids Sunday. Regular meals today. He got unhooked from IV this morning. No IV pole tagging along on his walks! He does still have the IV in his hand, but they only use it when they need to give him antibiotics or other meds. He's hooked up right now for about an hour to get the antibiotic.

Now, we hope his stomach will get the hang of what it's supposed to be doing and we'll get to come home.

Earl said someone told him this morning there would probably be no need for him to see Dr. Watson on Wed, since he's been here for last week. So we may get to head toward TN on Wed, if he gets out tomorrow.

I haven't mentioned it to Earl, but I have wondered if Dr will want to see Earl in another week. That was the plan when he got out of hosp last time. He absolutely will not be happy with that. He wants to GO HOME NOW! We should find out tomorrow morning when we'll be traveling.

We're meeting my brother, Mike, in the Lancaster, PA area so Earl can travel back in his motor home. Should be a lot easier on Earl.
