Hello to all. Mark has definitely turned the corner and is doing better. He has been fever free for more than 24 hours now and has been off antibiotics for more than that. He looks good. His pain is improving some, although he still requires pain medication. The drain in his abdomen has slowed substantially and they may be able to pull it tomorrow.
We should be talking discharge plans in the next day or so if things continue to go in this direction.
Lee and Andy will both leave for Auburn tomorrow and it will be Eugenie and I here with Mark once again.
For lunch today we went to Primanti Brothers which was featured on Man vs Food and is famous in Pittsburgh. It was good. We brought food back for Mark. He refuses to eat ANYTHING here in the hospital (he is just a bit spoiled). That's okay because the hospital food here is really bad.
Brent took Colton to his baseball tournament today while Kathy stayed home with Emily and Calen. Calen has been sick. I really hate being away from the kids for so long. I miss them terribly.
Thanks again for all of the support. God bless!!!
