Michele is doing well. The kids got to visit for a short time tonight, which was great medicine for everyone. Our daughter hit every automatic hand sanitizer in the place, entering and exiting, and should be germ free to the bone until 2012. My apologies to the Germ-X refill guy. I assume tomorrow Michele will be taking the wheel of this ship back from “Gilligan” and hitting me repeatedly with her hat. I will leave you all with a few observations from the hospital:
People complain about hospital food but the fried chicken is always good. Always.
Kids don’t have the life experience to fill in the blanks. This can serve them well or scare them to death. You can only hope they open up enough to give you a clue as to what they do and do not understand.
“Scrubs” should not be allowed on hospital televisions. It really underscores how completely unfunny real hospitals are.
Insurance, prescription drugs and other woes aside, modern medicine is really pretty incredible.
Somebody needs to invent wireless heart/chest monitors. It looks like somebody dropped a giant marionette on the bed.
Etc., etc…It’s been a long day. There are still questions to be answered, but today went about as well as we could have hoped for. I don’t know what battles we have ahead, but right now…tonight…I feel like a pretty blessed, lucky guy. Thanks for checking in and following this blog. It means a lot to her. And she’s right. It’s pretty darn therapeutic. Goodnight.

Glad your whole family is there for each other.
And you can’t go wrong with Fried Chicken. Or cheese.
Dave and Michele:
My FB account was inactive for a while so I am just joining y’all on this journey. I will be following and keeping you in my prayers.

You were right, Michele. That Dave is a funny guy. It was fun to have him as your guest writer. Speedy recovery, my friend.
Thanks for updating! My husband would have no clue what to do with my blog. He’d probably delete it by mistake.
