post op + 4

Kev is continuing to improve. Yesterday the epidural was disconnected and today it was removed so now he is on oral pain meds. His hemoglobin was continuing to trend down so it was decided to give him a boost with 2 more pints of blood before it got too low. (Besides it seemed appropriate for Holloween.) The therapist had him up and walking around the floor with the aide of a walker. His central line in the neck was removed so he is down to only one IV in the arm. He still has 2 drains connected, but the Orthopaedic Oncologist says he may be ready to go by Friday. Thanks for all the good thoughts and prayers!
