Mike has had a better day today. Many things are going his way...sleep is not one of them though I did get to crawl in with him and we took and hour and a half nap. Which did us both a world of good.
He's up and walking again. He even went down to the hospital lobby for a coffee! His temp has stayed down. His pain is managed. He has been managing his ostomy which has suddenly come to life. I think that has helped him the most. He is eating cautiously. Has kicked our butts at Scrabble and (Elaine are you listening) is wearing sweats and his I-POOD shirt. The Docs are getting a kick out of that.
And now for the BIG news....his catherter is out and he is peeing! I could have cried I was so happy.
We are both tired. I'm going back to the hotel early and will be taking my sleeping pill and looking forward to a real night of rest. I am releived that Mike is better. Thankful. Pleased and relieved.
Peace and good night.

Love these happy entries! Great news and two thumbs up for all the accomplishments today. Have you asked if you can have a bed in the room with Mike? If it helps him and you both to sleep together or in close proximity..... My experience is that they will allow this, you might want to ask. How nice you were able to take a nap together :)
Good night to both of you, I hope you both have a good night sleep
I'm glad to hear that you had a better day and hopefully are having a good night's sleep. We miss you!! Any idea how much longer they are going to keep you there? Keep up the good work of taking care of yourselves. Love you, Lisa PS "Mom" Elinore sends her love also.
