Slight Change of Plans

Instead of coming home tomorrow, Dad is coming home . . . tonight!!  In fact, as soon as he finishes up with his current feeding tube he will be discharged for home. 

Dad's eyelid surgery is scheduled for first thing in the morning (6 AM). This will be a minor outpatient surgery.  Because of the surgery, Dad will not be up to visitors at home for at least the next day or two. 

This is a huge step in the recovery process.  We are hopeful that Dad will recover even more quickly from the comfort and familiarity of home. 

Thanks for all of the love and support during the challenging last month and a half.   The challenges are not over yet, but Dad has come such a long way.  We are so grateful to still have him with us!

  1. It is wonderful to hear of your dad's progress and to know that he is home. We are so happy for him and for all of you. He and your mom will continue to be in our thoughts and in our prayers.

  2. It is great to keep informed about your dad's status. We are extremely excited about Ed coming home to be with family and familiar surroundings. I'm sure that he will do even better in his own home over the next few weeks. We look forward to being able to visit with him in our close proximity in the neighborhood. We continue to have him in our thoughts and prayers.
    Love, Dean & Marilyn Harmon
