Thank you.

They put him on a portable inhaler to break up the mucosa in the lungs, have him taking Tylenol, Robostussen plain, orders to SLEEP, drink lots of clear liquids, take walks lasting at least 30-minutes each day, and eat hearty meals 3 times daily. That last part is what he liked hearing the best.

I’ve been checking on him and fever is gone. He’s his lucid, sharp witted self.

Beaming at the eating hearty part.

He’s following Drs. directions, all directions, carefully.

Traffic wasn’t bad but I got behind a corvette that was crawling. What’s the matter with that picture? You got a vette...drive it! LOL

Just getting home is enough challenge on your road conditions.

The store can wait....you just get home safe!

Thank goodness that he is listening to the doctors!...um...especially about the eating heartily part! LOL!

It sounds like he is a strong individual with a great sense of humor (not unlike his son) and will be up’n’at ‘em very soon!

I hope he gets to go home soon. People seem to heal faster in their own beds, it seems!
