Hospital stay

Well as some of you know dad has been in the hospital. Well he went in Sunday at midnight and they said he had a hernia and they scheduled surgery for 6:00pm but the operating room was not available so they decided to hold it off until the next day. Well the next day they scheduled the surgery for 11:00 and and it was only supposed to take an hour but he wasn't back into his room until 3:00pm well they found he had a ruptured appendix as well so they had a big mess to clean up they figured he would be in the hospital until Monday the next week because he was in alot of pain and his incision is not closed well Wednesday nothing changed he still ahd to eat jello and broth. Thursday they took him off IV and let him eat solid food. Today (Friday) he was there and was aloud to take a shower! They said that if they put him on a wound vac he could come home but we first had to secure one and have it delivered here so then around 5:00 pm mom left to go get him and arrived home around 5:40! We are glad it was nothing worse and now he will have to recover for awhile at least until the beginning of March.
