We got to the hospital at about noon today. Almost immediately after we get to the hospital, a nurse tells us Dad will be going home today! Of course, it takes a few hours to process all the exit paperwork. Chris and I go to Sam's to get a few things. Mostly to get energy drinks so my dad can keep up his caloric intake and protein. He's told to eat 5-8 small meals a day but I can't imagine that will be enough to maintain weight. His stomach is the size of a golf ball. Chris and I get back, drop everything off and grab a quick bite to eat. We are meeting Teri to go look at a possible wedding reception site. I don't want to leave my dad. I feel like I want to be by his side every second. Every second is precious.
