Thursday, August 19, 2010

Dad's home from the hospital and recuperating from surgery. He did go to the Feather River clinic today to try to have his ears cleaned out. He's been having a hard time with some stubborn wax buildup that he just can't get rid of. It's been causing him quite a bit of grief. They got a lot of it, but not all.

He has a follow up appointment with Feather River for his surgery on Tuesday, and then UCSF wants him back on Wednesday. It's great that he gets to stay home for awhile to try to get some energy up before he has to go back for another 3-5 treatment. At UCSF they will be giving him a 36 hour drip, then watching him for a bit before they release him home for another week. We're expecting he'll be released on Saturday or Sunday, and I'll go down and pick him up.

Nancy had plans to come out this Wednesday when we had anticipated he'd be home, but due to the unexpected gall bladder surgery, he'll be in the hospital for the entire time she's here. Luckily, Southwest airlines only charged her $19 to change her tickets to the following Sunday through Friday! This way, she can stay with dad while he's at home while Becky works an extra week. Then, Craig and Doug might be driving out for the weekend.

In other fabulous news, Becky applied for a transfer to the Red Bluff office to be closer to dad, and got an interview on Monday morning. (She's been waiting for this job to open up for years!) They called her back today and told her she got the job! Woohoo! Congrats Becky!
