Day 9: Green Light

The most wonderful Dr. Coleman
     The Thoracic team was here early this am (Dr. Shipper and his crew....No Picture :() with the green light to go home. Then Dr Coleman came in and gave the green light too. The plan is to be able to leave sometime sabbath afternoon. We have some discharge teaching to do prior to going home. The infusion care team will be coming in tomorrow and showing us how to do Dad's feeds and medication administrations. PT will be sending us home with a walker. He has been increased to 60cc=2oz every hour and on full liquids instead of clears.
     The three kids finally decided to show up about 8:20am and took Dad for his morning walk with instructions to "HOOF-IT" speed. He did 2 loops around the ward in 2.45min....way to go Dad. He and Bonica had a really good sleep last night.
