It is another beautiful day here in Rochester-there is a possibility of snow tomorrow. Chris is feeling much better and is ready to have the vent removed! The dialysis, as expected, has help with his overall well-being. All of the numbers look good. The vent has been turned down again and they will continue to turn it down as long as Chris can tolerate it. He continues with baby steps but they are all in the right direction. Carolyn, Lyland Bill and I will stay here in the hospital atrium waiting room going back to see Chris each hour. I'm not sure where we will go for lunch, but dinner tonight is homemade soup at our hotel-yum! All of the prayers seem to be working-so keep them heading this way. Have a good day. Mary Jo
