The doctors took the chest tube out two days ago. The infection seems to be clearing. From being in a hospital bed since January 28, my dad's body has deconditioned to a point where he can barely stand. He is going to rehab on Friday. We are not sure if he will be going to Kessler (West Orange) or Ingelmor (Livingston). My dad is starting radiation again tomorrow. The doctors had stopped the radiation when he had the surgery last monday. The doctors are keeping the feeding tube in place. My dad is eating during the day and being fed through the tube at night. This is necessary for him to gain weight.
This has been an extremely trying and difficult time for us and we are so appreciative of everyone's good thoughts. We will keep you posted.....
