Unlimited Liquids

Tomato Bisque, coffee, "mystery custard", sherbert and juice - just what a man wants to eat after involuntarily fasting for 7 days! Well, this was his first official "meal" and after eating it he told the nurse not to bother bringing dinner!
Anyhow, he has now graduated to an unlimited liquid diet for the time being. Hopefully they will add some soft foods soon!

Let me tell you that every doctor and every nurse LOVES Gary's room! One of the Urologists told us that in the 4 years of being at this hospital he has never seen such a HAPPY & COOL room! We had so much help with all the decor and we are so thankful to everyone who made posters, sent E-mails, brought balloons, brought flowers, brought stuft animals and brought cards!

I would venture to say that Gary had a pretty good day today. He never asked for pain meds (he is officially off ALL pain meds) and Don brought some holographic disks to place on Gary's body to help with his sciatica. Today I tried to help ease his sciatic pain and instead after slightly applying pressure to his "tender area" he squealed like a little girl! Hey, I tried.

Gary did a few laps today around the 5T and he had lots of visitors. Gary is really becoming super social - which surprises most! Remember God can do great things through trial.

Thank you for all your prayers! Keep them coming!

Signing off for now. I need to take a shower and watch Wild Hogs!

Love, L
