Here we are on our second full day in the hospital. I left the hospital for awhile to run home and grab a shower, and to stop at mom's to visit the girls. On my way back up I swung into Yokes and picked up this cute little puppy (his bandana says 'woof you') and a Feel Better Soon balloon to take back up with me. I know this is seriously no picnic for Rob, and I just wanted to give him a smile if I could...and I think the puppy did the trick. These have been days filled with firsts for him, and not the kind you look forward to; first serious illness, first IV, first ultrasound and MRI, first hospitalization. And, the poor guy hasn't been able to eat anything since Thursday except a mug of broth...as he is enjoying in the photo. Not that he's wanted anything else really...between his pain level, and the medication he's on, food is the last thing on his mind.
We did meet with a surgeon this afternoon, and he is leaning toward surgery tomorrow, but might want to look at a CT scan first before making a final decision. I guess we won't know until morning what he's decided. Another night of waiting.
