Things we have learned

Good morning loyal followers
John is having a repeat Cat scan to determine if the fluid in his abdomen has dissipated and whether or not they will remove the drain or leave it in for a few more days. Either way, he will be going home either today or Friday. He will continue with a daily one hour IV antibiotic infusion through next Wednesday to make certain all infections are gone.

I find I have not totally lost my sense of humor but I have:
1. Completed my analysis of traffic on I-95 at Old St Augustine Rd. ( the view from John's corner room)
2.Replenished the tea bag supply in the 5th floor Family Retreat room by "borrowing "some from the plentiful supply on the 4th floor retreat.
3. Made friends with others using the numerous family-friendly facilities here at Baptist South
4. Decorated the window sill in John's room with my lovely birthday cards.
5. Used all of our non-AT&T cell phone minutes until early August, but you may use our home number after Saturday.
6. Learned how dependent I have become on my phone and the ability to email and iMessage, search the web for medical info and restaurant menus as well as to take photos and actually TALK.

Thanks to all of you for your love, prayers, and best wishes. We could not have done this without you.
