Joe is all nestled, snug in his bed!

And thus came the end of the first full day of this trip to Duke. It was an excitement filled day at the Club Duke Spa. Port removal, several visitors, antibiotics flowing, blood drawing, meals eaten, long phone conversations, FaceTime with me during lunch, and of course iPad usage. All in all not a bad day....considering he's in the hospital.

Joe also found the time to volunteer for another research study. This one on Bloodstream Infections Database/Repository. Once a teacher, always a teacher even if his blood is what will help with research. This must be at least the 5th study he has been a part of. Oh well, that's my Joe, always giving.

Anyway, since he did not sleep well last night, he is already sound asleep with little snores here and there.   Next interruption should be around 11 pm when he gets his next antibiotic (Zosyn).  Until then, I'll just watch a movie on Netflix.

Thank you to everyone.  This is easier because we know we have so many people praying and sending positive, healing energy our way.
