Thank the Lord for continued answer to prayer. Dad had a good night last night after spending nearly three hours in recovery. He still has a spinal block in place which is keeping him 'comfortable', but has taken no additional medicatoin for pain. He's a pretty tough guy - or a good liar.
Mom spent the night at the hospital with Dad against the wishes of the floor staff. I guess they knew when they had met their match. When Melody and I came in this morning, Dad was sitting up, had his hair combed, had good color and met us with a smile. He was the proverbial 'sight for sore eyes'.
A specific prayer request - Dad's glucose level is just one point high, so he had to take insulin. Pray that his pancreas will kick in and operate as God intended.
He has been up in a chair for about an hour this morning and then back to bed for a nap. Melody said he treated his roommate to a hearty round of snoring.
