Tomorrow is the Day

It has been quite a week. Andrew has progressed nicely through the recovery process. It is painful to have a large abdomenal surgery as he did. Thursday was a difficult day with a lot of nausea. However, on friday, things moved foward as his insides finally started working. He took a long walk. They allowed him to pulled out his own NG tube and begin drinking. Aaron, John and Matt, Kortny and Sabree had a movie night with Andrew. Saturday he was able to begin eating food. We had Randall's aunt's funeral in the morning. When we arrived saturday night, Andrew was off of everything but he was having pain. He has lost some weight and will have to regain the weight. It looks like we will be going home on sunday! It will take time to feel good eating again. His stomach has shrunk down and nausea is a problem. It has been wonderful to receive all of the well wishes for Andrew that he has received from the staff. Andrew's success is this hospital's success!
