A Great Day!

We're back on the roller coaster and hitting a high today! Here's to hoping it lasts. Dad is out of ICU and back in a regular room. He is in Room 217, which we decided has to have better karma than Room 223 where he's spent the last month. He is feeling the best he has felt in days. The projection is to release him from the hospital on Friday...let's hope he finally does what they tell him :)

Everyone knows Dad's love of all things beer and more than 1 recommendation has been made for hops in his feeding tube, beer in the IV, something to give him the extra push he seems to be missing so far. Since some beer could be considered 'clear liquids' we're challenging his friends in the beer making industry to create a beer flavored jello (this idea courtesy of Keith in Austrailia...yes, we've taken the global approach to his recovery). We are certain this will speed up his recovery and have him home in no time!
