Our new kitty

We waited about 45 minutes in line to get our Leopard. The best part of it was getting free tshirts! So far it's awesome. It took over an hour to load onto our computer. Happy leopard day!

Something I've never seen!

I would like to thank Stephen Colbert for writing a book. I have known Rob for about 5 years now and I have never seen Rob read a book. I have seen him read magazines and on the computer, but never a book. So I had to document this occasion. I have read a little bit and it's very funny. I'm waiting for Rob to finish.

Rob's doing well. We take one day at a time. He sleeps a lot, but slowly being less tired. His voice is getting much better. It still isn't back to his normal voice, but it's nice to be able to hear him better.

Practice makes perfect

Landon, and his life long pursuit of the perfect smile has inspired me
to work on my own. I figure no need to start from scratch, so I
started with Landond's "walking down the hall and I see a patient"
smile, which we call the Dr. Suess smile, and then tweaked it just a
little more to fit my handsome mug!

WE'RE OUT!

Tonight Rob's surgeon came in and told Rob whenever he felt good enough to go home let him know. So Rob said, I'm ready right now! We are now in the hotel. It took awhile to get the prescriptions at the hospital. We'll go back home tomorrow. Rob is super happy to be out!

Rob's diet

I thought this was funny =) Rob is doing well this morning. He's been trying to sleep. They are taking iv's out and things preparing to go home soon. Probably tomorrow! He's looking so much better then yesterday.

Life is good =)

Rob had another ct scan tonight to make sure everything looked good. His hematoma in his right shoulder seems to be a few milimeters larger, but they were glad to say Rob wasn't bleeding into in his chest. So they finally let him eat. It's been 48 hours since he last ate. They are giving him blood right now. He's looking much better than this morning. They are now shooting for saturday morning to be released.

Sleepy

Rob is pretty swollen from all the fluids going through him. They have been monitoring him well and been doing a few tests. Rob's blood seems to have gotten a little too thin again. They ultrasounded his shoulder area because they noticed something there after surgery. They said it was a precaution to make sure it stayed the same as yesterday. So we'll find out more later. All seems good though. They were going to release him today but now they say tomorrow.

out of surgery

Rob is out of surgery. We met with the surgeon and he said it was difficult. Rob's vein was only 2 mm and so they needed to use a part of a vein from his leg. We will see rob around nine. We're just so glad he's out!

still in surgery

Just a little update. I guess Rob went in at 2:45 for surgery. We keep getting different times on what time he went in, so I think 2:45 is right. Poor rob hasn't eaten, so I'm hoping he did ok waiting. We haven't seen him since 12. We're waiting in the floor he will come to and stay. We're very disappointed because he doesn't have a private room and we requested one. It seems like they like to have a ton of double rooms here. So we sit here confused. Hopefully we'll hear something soon.

update- probably about an hour or so left. He's doing well. They're harvesting his vein from his thigh instead of using dacron. We're worried about that.

In surgery!

Rob went in for surgery about an hour ago. We left and got something to eat, but are back now. We haven't heard any updates yet. We'll let you know as soon as we find out more!

Surgery today

We're at the hospital. We got a call on monday letting us know they moved Rob's surgery to wednesday. So here we are! We are just waiting for them to call his name. Rob's tired, but glad to get this all over with!
