Better Meds make for better days

So this morning Richard had to have minor surgery to redo the stitches that had let go which gave his team the opportunity to take another look at what is going on. The good news is that nothing is worse and the feeding tube should be usable, which means he "might" be able to come home sooner than later (yea)
Also, they have found a combination of meds that help with the pain, but don't make him sick (which is what caused the stitches issue). He still gets a little loopy but seems m comfortable overall.
We are holding off on connecting the feeding tube at least another full day to give his body a chance to heal up a bit.
Tomorrow I will only get quick visits but I am excited that my dad will get to see Anna perform again (this time with the full team) before he leaves Sat. She'll be at Basha HS for the half time of the Basketball game if anyone wants to join us!
