Well, dad and mom are now in the comfort of their home. YAY!! Dad was released late this afternoon. Dad is very very groggy. The medications are doing their job at keeping the nausea at bay & the hiccups under control (for the most part), but they make him drowsy. Needless to say, they will be napping for the next few days. The drs said it would be about 6 days until dad feels a little more normal. Mom & dad are both looking forward to sleeping in longer stints than the 1 to 2 hours they have grown accustomed to (w/the extra hydration & the checking of dad's vitals so frequently, it was very difficult to get any good REM sleep in the hospital).
Dad will let you know through the website when he's up to walkers/visitors/phone calls. Thank you for all your understanding with that! Much love to you all!

Ron and Kathy,
Good to hear the last chemo is done and you are home to recuperate. We have finally shut off the snow, roads at the ranch reappeared,snow melting from roofs. I have been out walking the dog and a little cross country sking on the golf course. There is 1-2 feet on the flat, with 3+ in some areas. I look forward to checking blog on your status and will call when given the green light. Thom and Carol

Ron, Just heard "Green, Green, Grass of Home"(My favorite in Nam) on the radio and I thought of you. How good it must feel to be home! Get some rest! You and Kath have shown so much strength and perseverance. Just think rest and Costco, rest and Costco......Looking forward to your words, Harold
Hello, Torey: Thanks for the update. It's great to hear that Ron and Kathey are back at home and able to rest. You're all in our thoughts and prayers, Tina
