Dad Update (OT)
Just talked to my dad. The blood flow down the bypassed artery seems to be
increasing; the doctor will check again in the morning. If it's not
sufficient, they will try to insert a catheter to open things up a bit more
(hope not). So far things are looking good. Dad is tired (naturally) and
in pain (naturally). His incision has broken open 4 times.
The physical therapist tried to get him to walk yesterday and he gave her
piece of his mind, but he did walk a bit today with my mom. He said it's
hard to do with all those tubes they have him hooked to (I'm sure!). He
also said since it's Mother's Day he's sending Mom home to mow the lawn and
wash the car! LOL Yes, apparently he's feeling much better. Thanks
everyone!
