The View From Wisconsin

My Dad is doing a bit better, but is still up at the hospital. He's been through two surgeries - one to remove a chunk of his intestines, the other to remove a benign tumor on his kidney.

He hasn't been looking so great in recent days, but it looks like his "innards" are starting to work again. Hopefully he'll be able to get off the NPO restriction and get that tube out of his nose, which has probably made him sound (and feel) worse than he really is.

Next step for him is to start eating and drinking. If he can do that and keep it down, he might be out by this time next week. Keep praying for him.
