Pretty good day yesterday except that his feeding tube is clogged again and this time can't get it open. Hopefully he's eating enough that they won't have to replace it for just a few days. They've added Glucerna to each meal to help control his blood sugar spikes and to supplement the nourishment.

We didn't do much yesterday. We were going to go out for ice cream in the afternoon but we were both too full after lunch and it was too hot. Thought we were going to get some rain but all we got was thunder.

Aimee, Lee and Dani are on their way. They left yesterday afternoon and stopped about 10 last night. I know that Lee and Aimee are both early risers so they will probably get on the road early. Our friends Cindi and John are also coming back today for appointments at Mayo tomorrow. It will be good to see them too.

The man in Memphis I told you about did not get his heart. It turned out to be unusable after all. The message I got was that it was enlarged. I don't know if it was already enlarged prior to whatever caused the death of the donor, or if that trauma caused it. In any case, he is still waiting.

We're going to the little church service this morning and this time we can join in the coffee social! That's been the hardest thing for him. They have a lot of activities but most of them include snacks and since he couldn't have those he didn't go. There's also a movie this afternoon. Don't know if we'll go to that or watch the Olympics. Just have to see how the day goes.
