Tired

We're really tired and hopefully going to sleep soon. So, this will be a quick update.

After throwing up twice last night, Dan has felt better all day. The Toradol really seems to be working for him, to help him move and breathe as he should. He's had to take it easy on the liquids today, so he's hoping things begin to digest as they should tomorrow.

Apparently speaking your mind does help sometimes. Guest services returned and gave us a blanket, tote bag and parking pass as a sign of their appreciation. The best part of the day, though, was moving to his private room. It's bigger so I can sleep on a chair actually made for sleeping. Additionally, it should mean fewer interruptions in the night so Dan (and I) can get some rest.

Dan has had a low-grade fever all day. We thought it went away earlier, but now it's back a little higher. Ugh. Hopefully, it is not indicative of any infectious processes. Labs will help explain it in the morning.

Today was a blessing, though. Dan was lucid and happy and smiling. Amazing what pain control can do. I missed my husband these past few days. So glad he's coming back.

Prayer Requests:
* Fever breaks, remains gone and is NOT due to an infection
* Incision begins to heal more quickly and does NOT become infected
* Strength and endurance for Dan
* Continued improvement with no further complications
* A great night's sleep for Dan
* A cooperative and functioning digestive system
* Good news!
