Report from Arab, AL 1 4 2009

I'm back in Alabama with Sally.  We're getting ready for the big event in the morning to remove those three kidney stones in her right ureter!  Then, we're hoping the flow will resume and the nephrostomy tube may be removed in a couple of weeks.

Her heart and her bed sore are mending well.  She's getting stronger.  We had a little outing this morning to the landfill, post office, cemetery, and Wal-mart.  She did well.

Her blood glucose is averaging 177 so that's good.  Still hasn't learned to self-administer the insulin shots, but we're discussing this.

Pray for our big day tomorrow.  We're hoping that the procedure will be almost outpatient in nature.  Even though she will undergo general anesthesia, we're hoping for her to go home tomorrow.

More later.
