A Visit from the Grandsons

Today Dad did well. Not much difficulty with the breathing and he walked much more and with less effort (he lifted up his walker and carried it as he went along).

The guys came to Cleveland to get me and the boys got to see Poppy for the first time since surgery. They thought he was looking good. We gave them a tour of the clinic and got some pizza.

He is getting stronger everyday. He talked with our daughter, Sarah, on Skype for a few minutes. She is in London this semester and was glad to be able to see her Poppy as well. The internet is a wonderful thing in times like these!

Thanks to all those who helped with the boys while I was in Cleveland. I will be updating from here for the next few days until Dad and Mom come home - probably by the middle of next week. Dad's immune system was basically destroyed by meds when he had the surgery to reduce the risk of rejection of the new liver. Because of this he will not be out and about for a while and visits will be very limited. He can't afford to be exposed to germs or get sick.

Here is a picture of the boys at the Rooftop Pavilion.
