Stable

    Nothing much is going on on the Dad front. We are reminded that "No news is good news" does not mean that all news is bad, but rather that a lack of news often is a positive sign. He seems better to me. He has to stay in the hospital all weekend, but I'm pretty sure this is just so he's under observation while he recovers from congestive heart failure. As usual, communication with the doctors is fairly minimal.
    Our crisis yesterday was that his phone didn't work, so Margaret was convinced that he was very ill or dying. But eventually they gave him another phone, so communications were restored and all was well. Today, he's likely spending the afternoon in dialysis, so no major excitement is likely. We hope.
    South Carolina played its bowl game yesterday (and won) and Clemson play theirs tomorrow, so at least dialysis fit in well around football. Sheer luck more than anything, I think, but we'll take any luck we can get around now!
