Tuesday, August 17, 2010

I just saw Dad today at Feather River Hospital. He's doing o.k., but seems to be in quite a bit of pain from the gall bladder surgery. He's on pain meds every couple of hours but hopefully the pain will lessen by tomorrow. 

He's been walking the halls which should also help with some of the pain, but just getting out of bed really hurts the abdominal muscles. So does laughing. I didn't do it on purpose, he started it - but it did seem to hurt quite a bit! Why he kept trying to gross me out I don't know...

Anyway, he could be released as early as tomorrow. They want him to start solid food and have that for 24 hours which he just started at lunch today as I was leaving.

He's in a double room which is not the most comfortable, but his roommate is a nice enough guy.

I'll have another update tomorrow when we know if he'll be released or not.

Oh - and here's a great link to send Dad a "cheer card" while he's at Feather River. He's in Room 295.
