Two more tubes are gone!!! He's down to "just" three drains and the IV is in but not connected! Alan was able to eat more today! They also gave him the 4 vaccines he needs since he no longer has a spleen.
This morning we took an adventure walk! Alan wanted to ventured off the 10th floor and went to the Observation Floor! Such beautiful views! It was a big walk and three different elevators involved. I was so proud of him.
We also had the pleasure of a visit from one of our dear friends, Paul. Mr. Brown has been texting Alan and I daily throughout his cancer journey. It was wonderful to spend some time with him.
There has been some issues with his colostomy bag. We are working through them. A lot of this will be trial and error as we figure out what works. Part of the challenge is how close it is to his incision. The other challenge is that just learning his body and what's going to work for him.
Lord, give us and the doctors wisdom. We have lots of little details and things we are working on before release. Pray for the rest of the drains to go. Please also continue to pray for the girls with school and UIL Area Competition this Saturday.
