hi folks,
it's been a busy few days fussing over dennis. he's still fluid overloaded and the team of cardiologists are working hard to balance him out. he's exhausted and having difficulty breathing due to enlarged belly. he's also got a bad case of the cankles. after lots of consultation with the medical staff, dennis will undergo a procedure today to draw out the fluid from his belly. they will insert a large syringe and pull out as much fluid as possible. they got 4 large canisters ready to fill up. hopefully this will help him to breath easier and get some rest. he has his first full night of sleep in a week and he's more rested to go for his procedure today. looks like he will be on the cardiology unit for a couple of weeks.

Hey Dennis!! So good to get an update on the blog! Cankles huh!? I had to look that up - never heard of that before! Probably everyone else has though. I hope the procedure to remove fluid went well and it wasn't to painful - probably worth it to be able to rest, sleep and heal huh? It's cold out today - keep the heat up and stay warm. I know it ain't easy but give joy, peace and love everything you've got - it will make your world a better place and improve your healing!! May God continue to bless you with all good things!!! jeff n
Just wanted to send my love and good vibes out your way Dennis :) I still check for updates daily and can't wait to see the day that you get to go home :)
Hang in there, lots of love and hugs.
Like Jeff said, it's chilly and fall like, and most people would pay to get to stay inside under the blankets :) I know you'd probably trade it for anything in the world though, and if I could, I would.
