Roger’s numbers continue to improve and the enzyme number has finally dropped below 400. This is very good news and if it continues its downward spiral, Roger may not have to go to outpatient services for a daily infusion of his antibiotic. We are really hoping for that!!
Although this is good news, it appears that he will be in the hospital a few more days with a release closer to the end of this week. We’re trying to get him home before our Thanksgiving celebration on Sunday. Brenda and Mike Simons (my sister and brother-in-law) are going to be here and we want Roger home to enjoy the festivities. He’s really looking forward to all the good food which he wasn’t in the mood for last year at this time. Thank goodness the appetite has returned!
Roger was feeling a little down and out yesterday morning when I visited, he’d worked with PT and OT and was feeling a bit tired too but by last evening he was feeling a lot better knowing that he will be home soon.
Because he will be in the hospital on his birthday, I’ve decided to have a little birthday reception for him there. Click on the link below to view your invitation. It’s going to be very simple but I thought he needed a little celebration on his day. I hope, for those who are close by, you’ll be able to stop by for a minute or two, enjoy some cake and conversation with him. He would love to see you!
We’ll keep you posted on the count-down to home.
