We visited Dad at the hospital today. He is doing okay, but doesn’t really want to be there. He had some nausea, but given the different drugs he is getting, it doesn’t surprise me. He is a stubborn German farmer, so he isn’t the most cooperative patient, but I think that he is regaining his strength, so that he can go home. I am sure that he will go stir-crazy in there once he starts feeling stronger and gets his independent streak back in gear.
Dave and Josh rode along with us to the hospital. We met mom in Hutch and brought her along, too, so that she didn’t have to attempt to drive in the Twin Cities traffic. The passengers were grouchy, but that happens in dealing with a long drive. It would have been better to leave at 5:00 a.m. so that the boys slept for most of the drive, but some of the passengers hinted that leaving early would require them to get out of bed extremely early. The day was not bad and it was nice to visit Dad. We all want him to get stronger and get home, and that is what matters, not the petty stuff and minor inconveniences.
