Hello again. Just a quick update. Mark is doing a bit better today. He got up and did 2 long walks in the halls. He was a little quicker (not fast by any means) the second time around. He sat in the chair 3 times today as well. He is currently awake enough to be watching the FSU/Miami football game which says a lot.
He hasn't been running fever this afternoon, so we are hoping the antibiotics are doing their trick. (Of course, they are giving him Tylenol around the clock, so who knows). He still isn't eating or drinking anything to speak of. He had a couple of sips of gatorade today. His abdomen is still very distended.
We will see what the Dr. says on rounds tomorrow. We hope Dr. Holtzsmith is back on duty for Dr. Bartlett. The guy covering the last 2 days we weren't really happy with.
I went to the Family House this evening and ran on the treadmill. It felt great to just RUN!!!!!! It is hard to just sit for so long. Matt and Angie sat with Mark. I showered and gathered my things to stay the night with Mark and came back in time for pizza. Matt had gone to get a pizza for dinner. Mark isn't the least tempted. He has no appetite.
Angie will be leaving for Oklahoma tomorrow and we will miss her. Thanks Angie.
Continue to pray for Mark. God bless!!!!!!
