Dear Kiddos-- So... a long day it seemed but we moved ahead. They did a
scan and found Dad’s pancreas had some discoloration. Figured it to be related
to the Pancreatitus attack. A stone is there, enzymes secreted, pancreas takes
a munch out of itself. (dreadful thought). They couldn’t see any more stones
and are hoping the culprit is gone. He is still nauseated but has a great Rx.
He is still very tired. He doesn’t have the stomach pain like he did. He will
watch what he eats. So the plan now is wait until the surgeon gets back from
India (his homeland) and he will check him out on July 7 to see what is going on
in there. IF he has another attack, before he comes back to WA, then the
surgeon will have one of his fellow surgeons help him out. Dad is content to
wait as he has total confidence in the surgeon from India. The primary physican
today was very nice and so was the other young Dr. Well, I’m taking Dad’s word
for it as I sat in the TV area, as I couldn’t really trust myself, if they
started fiddling around and not moving things ahead. Dad was happy and that
made me happy. So now we will just bide our time until that July 7th
appointment.
I’m worn out as it really was a long day but a good day.
Love and hugs to each of you!!!! xoxoxoxo
