Walking Today

Walking in the halls was allowed today. Yeeeaaa! We took several short walks, down the hall, mostly from window to window. Ray was glad just to be able to see the outside world. He has a terrible view from his room--a wall. He was happy, to see fog and drizzle.

Still on the morphine; the Dr. is saying maybe tomorrow he'll begin the weaning process. We were sure hoping by now, the morphine would be out of his room. Maybe we're expecting too much, too soon. The pain is completely gone now--even when coughing or hiccups. He's also on a low amount of oxygen. I'm thinking he may be taking that home with him. Who knows?

Needless to say, he's ready to come home and sees no reason for being stuck in there. He's thinking of all the things he needs to be doing and will be doing as soon as he's turned loose. (auction at his shop next week) That's one of the hazards of feeling better. I'm guessing, that Dr. already has this one figured out!

Love you all,
Kim
