Happy Father's Day!

Dad celebrated a wonderful Father's Day! He was able to eat today!!! Though clear liquids were the only items on the menu, he enjoyed it all to the last drop! He gets the epidural out tomorrow, so he is on track to go home in the next few days.

Tim spent the night at the hospital and said Dad had the best rest so far. This morning he walked, exercised and sat in a chair for a couple of hours. Mom drove up with Dennis and Nathan and later Josh and Abbey came. They spent a pleasant afternoon visiting.

I am headed up tonight and will stay until he comes home. Mom has a hotel room for a couple of days to alleviate the delirium of the daily commute. Dennis and Debbie will be here a few more days to help with things. Mark and Megan are flying in on Friday. It has been nice having Tim and Nathan here. Dad has enjoyed all the fun conversation.

We feel grateful to be over what seems to be the worst of this surgery and to see home in sight!
