Thanks Michele for allowing me to use your blog to keep everyone updated on Dad!
He's still in the hospital. He was having internal bleeding and they did an endoscopy this morning and found a large duodendum ulcer. They think that's what was causing the bleeding. He had a few blood tranfusions prior to the endoscopy because apparently he lost a lot of blood. Not exactly sure what they'll be doing to "fix" it...Mom thinks they'll be keeping him in the hospital at least thru the weekend. He's still very lethargic and weak so hopefully he'll be able to keep food/liquids down soon so he can regain his strength. His oncologist said he'd keep a close eye on him and wants to get him back on the Nexavar as soon as possible.
I'm so happy Turtle and Mindy will be there tonight to help Mom. She could use the company and needs help discussing everything with all of these doctors...very exhausting for her, I know.
But she's hanging in there and doing a wonderful job!
Love,Theresa
