GOOD BYE LADY IN THE BLACK BOX!!

It is Tuesday, April 18, 2006. After almost 4 weeks, Wendell has been to see his PCP for a followup visit. All is well. He increased his insulin morning and evening again. He'll start it in the morning. The doctor also decided he didn't need the VNA monitor any more, and they were calling them to let them know today. Good bye lady in the black box..here's your hat, what's your hurry?.. hehehehe....... We should be done with it tomorrow! YIPPEE!
He can start making short trips any time he feels ready now. Hooray!!!
I came home tonite and heard the tv in the bedroom. I stopped to tell Wendell good night, and noted the oxygen wasn't on. He had his CPAP on and was trying to use it. He really needs to try to get used to that thing. It's not so bad....really. Next week he sees the Pulmonologist for a follow up visit. They will determine whether he has to keep his O2 or return it. They will be testing him in the office, so he has to prove himself able to go without it.
God is so good and has blessed us over and over. Keep praying that he will keep improving.
He needs to do more walking.. and needs encouraged to do so. It will be the key to returning to his old job at the park. The guys there are just waiting for the day.
So we have all good news to report this time.. More later..
Have a super duper day all.....and ........Keep praying!!!!!!!!
