Sept 12

Hello again. Mark is doing better. I think having Andy and Lee here have helped. He has friends to discuss work, papers and football with. Not that Eugenie and I don't know our football, but I guess it's not the same as having guy friends around. Lee spent the night with Mark.

Mark had a good night. He is off antibiotics now and his highest temperature was 100.8. He seems to be feeling better. He still has pain in his abdomen, especially from the new drain they put in yesterday. The drainage has slowed down. They will try this afternoon to pull out the catheter and may stop his IV as well.

Mark's appetite is slowly returning. He ate a small sub sandwich last night and we are getting ready to eat Popeye's red beans and rice. Andy and Eugenie took a Cab to get this for him.

Mark is bummed that the Sooners aren't on TV tonight. We are watching football today in Mark's hospital room. He took one lap around the halls today and we hope to get him around for a few more laps later on.

Thanks again for all of the support. God bless!!!!
