January 2nd, Overall Update

Well I talked to mom on the phone not that long ago and don't really know to much. Here is what I do know:
  • They had to put dad's urinary catheter back in.
  • He isn't eating or drinking very much because he is still nausiated so much. The doctor ordered for him to get a shot for the nausea 30 minutes before he eats, hoping that will help. We don't have faith that the nurse will remember for breakfast, we will see. Mom will be there for lunch and dinner. When he isn't nausiated he has been eating and drinking well.
  • Mom had to call the supervisor again today. Apparently the lady came right down to solve the situation and was a Christian and prayed with mom and dad before she left.
  • Dad did the stand up device again with full assistance...he was able to do this for three and a half minutes.

That is about it from our conversation.....hope everyone is having a good start to 2009. Thank you all again for the prayers and support! God Bless!!!!

Try not to be too discouraged when there are little setbacks like having to reinsert the catheter and an appetite that waxes and wanes. Your dad is making incredible progress! I'm praying for you all! Love you!
