Jack woke up and reported that the sitter was mean - she would not let him do anything unless a nurse was in the room. Seems to me that she did a great job.He has been given some lasik to start dealing with some of the fluid that he has collected in his body. He was sounding wheezy and had a cough so we need to make sure the fluid does not collect in his lungs (He got yet another chest xray today). His blood pressure seems to be holding even with the lasik (everything these days is a balancing act) so if all of this holds up we should be kicked upstairs to the oncology unit. As you can tell from the picture, Jack has actually spent some time out of bed today although he can't go far - there are a lot of things tethering him to the bed.
So far we have managed to get some chicken wings and Nurse Debby just came in with some salsa and chips so we are feeling a touch like we are having a normal football day.
Next year hopefully we will be home having a superbowl party at the house with a hospital theme!

This is a more normal state for the last few days. . .

Wow, alot has happened since last checked in. I'm glad to see a bit of black and gold in your attire. Seems that the drugs has left you vulnerable and Cheryl slipped a bit of that Patriotic paraphanalia onto your body. It's no wonder that you have a rash. My body wouldn't have reacted well to that either! Chicken wings, chips & salsa... you're going to be alright now. Finally, you got some real man food in your system.
Stay on course and keep it steady, My Man Jack! You've got alot of people wishing you the best and praying for a speedy recovery! All of the High Rollers can't wait to see you back on the lanes. Jackie and I can't wait to give both of you a great big hug!
Take care, with Lots of Love!
It's nice to see everythign is going very well. I love you and you are very much missed ;( I haven't been on for a few days i spent the weekend at a friends house. Today we won our games still undefeated except for that one girls game.
Is that really you Jack? There are no coffee stains on that Patriots teeshirt.
