Back Home Again

This morning, the surgeons assistant came to check on my Dad. He told him that during the surgery they had to do a great deal of work in areas other than the incision area. This is going to cause him much pain and discomfort for some time. They did work in his chest cavity and "all over the place". The surgeon did a great job of working with a small incision to speed the recovery along. They were able to remove many orange sized masses.

This afternoon around lunchtime my Dad was released from University Hospitals. I had the nerve wracking responsibility of driving my parents home. Of course, right out of the hospital's main entrance is a bumpy construction area on Euclid Avenue. I felt so badly for the rough ride and apologized to my Dad at least 30 times for the bumps, dips and rough roads. I know he was in a lot of pain.

Your continued prayers for healing, wisdom for the doctors and my parents as they finalize their decisions regarding further treatments, direction and encouragement would be appreciated. Please pray that my Mom will be a good nurse and that my Dad will be a good patient!!! ;0)
