Dad had his procedure a couple hours ago. He came out of the anesthesia talking! He is very happy to have his voice back. He is also coughing much better. We are very excited that the procedure went so well.
Dad has lots of "gunk" in his chest. They said it is very thick and white. They are giving him an "anti-fungal" to help get rid of it. His white blood cell count has also gone up a little bit. They are taking samples of the "gunk", urine, etc. to check for infection. He has not had a fever so we are hoping that getting him up and walking plus his coughing will help. They are watching him closely for pneumonia. We are praying that he doesn't get it.
Dad received another big stack of cards today! Thank you so much for your encouragement and kind words!
Mom is sleeping here tonight. Please pray for a quiet night and some sleep for both of them. Blessings!
