This will be a really quick update as we are watching the Academy Awards and those that know Joe well know that this is his Super Bowl! Today Joe had lots of visitors, both family and friends. He has moved onto solid foods and has eaten well all day. They took out the epidural late this morning, so no more morphine. Now they have changed his pain meds to oxycodone pills every 4 hours. The result, he feels the pain just a bit more than he has the last 4 days. The end result, he only has 1 IV at this point. Practically "disconnected"! He walked 3 times, 3 laps around the floor each time.
I did sneak in a few hours at home this morning, doing some laundry but mostly napping on the sofa (unintentional). I guess if you are tired and you get comfortable, that's what happens! Sort of messed up my morning plans however. Oh well.
Thanks to everyone who has called, emailed and visited. You are helping to keep Joe's spirits high!
