Saturday's update- things are better

Well, I just talked to Mom and she sounded much better. Relieved even. She said that when she got there this AM Dad was sitting up reading the paper. While they still don't know a damn thing, he looks and feel much better. He did have to drink the chalk for the CT scan of the stomach this AM and he wasn't sure that it would stay down, but it did, at least until they took him away. Whether or not it would stay down in the machine, etc remained to be seen. They never did get to doing the scan last night.

She assumes that he'll be in the hospital thru Monday, at least, as the Drs who should be trying to figure out what is going on may not be back until then. I hope she's right, as knowing that the 4 IVs are providing whatever he needs and they don't have to worry about dehydration, etc. is a relief.

Neither of them was in his room when I just called, as he was having the scan and she ran out to the store, but they will both be back shortly.

That's what I know so far today.
