Surgery went well. A new set of microsurgeons were let loose, and the old (very fat) micros were retired. Dr. Duke was able to repair a couple of very small tears to the bowel, and hopefully dad will get a feeding tube in the near future.
This morning's rounds were encouraging. Dad's kidney function continues to pick up, and one of the doctors actually said that dad is no longer the "sickest person" in the STICU. He said this is a "title" dad's held for a long time, but he's recovered enough to be dethroned.
We continue to thank God for all of dad's progress, and pray for many many more recovery-filled days.
