Nick 's OUT!! He was released yesterday afternoon a beautiful day to be alive !!! Jack and Anders were able to say goodbye and return to Boston with a much better outlook as well as weather...So we are at the lake today re-grouping, collecting the pets and trying to set up post-hospital care (which has kept me on the phone all day) Nick has been doing well in the last 24hrs except for some unexplained but scary spikes in temperature, the first was shortly after he got home and took a nap, maybe it was the comforter or maybe it was Kitty on his lap but luckily the fever broke and went down...he also woke up with fever and shivers at 4 am...yikes! but since then he's been fine all day and eating well, walking in the yard a little and generally just resting. Later today we will drive up to Buffalo to stay at grandma's house, I finally got the post surgery nursing set up there and hopefully we can get the staples (all 54 of them) out later this week in there as well. He also has an abdominal drain which we hope can be taken out there as well...gotta work on that tomorrow :) In the meantime Aunt Chris , Uncle Dave and cousin Katie have been busy shopping for beds and linens so that Nick and I will both have a good nites rest once we are there. William is still with us although glued to his screen and phone due to the market crisis, he'll be flying home to St Louis tomorrow am early, I'm gonna miss him but hopefully this will be a few weeks of recovery that will last a lifetime
