Dad Update – 11/6

Sorry for the lack of updates.  I’m up in DC right now for work and it’s been hectic.

My dad had another colonoscopy on Wednesday.  The doctor’s did not find that anything was bleeding, and said that the bleeding was most likely residual blood working its way out of his system.  Later that evening, my dad reported that there was no more blood when he went to the bathroom.  So, that’s great news!  Also, his hemoglobin levels increased significantly, meaning that his body is doing it on its own.  As of when I talked to my mom last night, he was set to be released today as long as everything stayed on par.  I will be driving back to Chapel Hill tomorrow, and then we’ll drive home on Sunday.  It’ll be so good having everything back to normal.

Thanks again to everybody for all of your support.  It really means a lot to me and my family.
