That's wonderful ! and great that your Dad is so enthusiastically working at recovery. Where did he have his surgery?
OU Medical Center in OKC, OK
He is still doing well but experiencing a lot of drainage from the abdominal tubes. This is his 9th day in the hospital but the doctors said he will probably leave in two days. Home health care is scheduled to come to the house to help my mom take care of him. She is also 72.
He is still walking daily but his energy is really low and he hasn't been eating as much as he did the first two days of solid food. It doesn't make him sick, he just says he always feels full. Probably because of the swelling/bloating in his stomach.
We're still awaiting the pathology report.
