Judge Judy makes everything better....

We finally left the hospital around 3:30 this afternoon. Dad was not feeling terrific. Let's just say that we now know for sure that anesthesia makes him feel sick. Dr. Darwin had indicated that pancreatitis was a possible side effect of today's procedure so it appears the Percocet is going to get a work out tonight, too. Dad opted to ride in the back seat, but don't think for a minute that his discomfort and nausea prevented him from any "back seat driving" out of Baltimore. Knowing my dad, he just wanted to get home and resume normalcy as soon as possible and he wasn't about to risk that by me getting turned around in B-town during rush hour.  Since I was driving HIS car, I allowed it :)

...and resume normalcy was what he did. As I was walking out the door to head to the pharmacy, who else did I hear on the TV lecturing an individual on the stupid, lazy, and irresponsible decisions made than Judge Judy. The entertaining rants of Judge Judy makes everything better. Normalcy had been officially resumed!

The reports provided by Dr. Darwin indicated that we have reason to be cautiously optimistic. We do not have a final path report yet, so nothing is confirmed yet. Tomorrow we will schedule an appointment with a surgical oncologist. We hope to see him by the end of this week.

Dad seems to be finally sleeping soundly on the couch.

Thank you for the messages, thoughts and prayers.

Much love to all....Jen
