Tom is home now -- he is very glad to be out of the hospital -- and I am sure all the nurses are too. His middle name should be "impatient". They are sending out a home nurse to make sure I am feeding him correctly through the G-tube. He was able to drink half of his Insure last night, but took him so long, I had to give him his next feeding through the tube. He is pretty weak. Needs to get his strength back. So all is well on the home front!!

Things went really well today -- much better than expected. Tom came through his surgery in excellent condition. He can even swallow a little water, which he hasn't been able to do. And he can talk better than he has in weeks. He looks really good and is in a good frame of mind. He has not been able to take his thyroid medicine for two weeks, and the doctor thought that might be what is causing his weakness. I don't know about his pain level, since I am not adminstering the meds right now. They kept him in the hospital tonight to see how he tolerates the G-tube feeding. So far it is doing really good.

To our Morgie Pie -- thank you for the offer, honey. We love you. I know you would do just as good a job as Eric would have. If I get to the point where I really need someone, I will surely let you know. So far, things are doable and I am hanging in there.

Will keep everyone posted on here.
