Down (with) the drain

Word from the doctor is that tomorrow (Friday) morning he will pull out the drain. Not surprisingly, Paul was in much better spirits today than he's been for a while. He's still getting headaches -- previously they were attributed to the Ambien, but as he's not taking that anymore so we're not sure what they're from. Sick of being stuck in bed in the hospital is a leading theory, so we'll see if changing that soon helps.

I'm now down in San Diego and got to hang out with him for a bit this afternoon. More importantly, I was able to bring him a genuine autographed wiffle ball from the Ross family. We got to see the 4 inch scar on the back of his neck for the first time, which Paul insisted that Cheree photograph with her cell phone so he could see it too. Perhaps it can be framed and hang over the fireplace someday.

Cheree has been printing out all of your comments and taking them to him for his reading pleasure. He really appreciates all of your support (and fantasy baseball updates).

Love,
Kate

What great news that there is no more fluid build up. Hopefully the headaches will soon subside and Paul can blow that pop stand! Good thoughts and prayers for all of you!

Yay-- that's wonderful news. Hopefully Paul will be resting comfortably at home very soon.

I am glad for the good news. Please post the scar photo. Now Mike will have competition for the biggest scar at the company Christmas party.
