Good morning all,
Just a quick note from Dorcas to keep you up to speed... Rich and I went to AGH for two follow-up appointments yesterday. We got a lot of good news! The Defib. incision looked good and was working well. The cord from the Heartmate II is looking good. So good, that he got the approval and equipment to take a shower! This was great news!!

However, he has a little fluid in one of his lungs (a very mild concern). They have kept him overnight and is going in this morning to have this drained. The doctor said that he wants him home by the weekend if not sooner (depending on how long drainage takes). We know that you love him, but no trips are necessary to come to see him at the hospital.

Very happy about all the good reports and life is good... Will post soon
Thanks for all of your support
