Dad has slept most of the day. They can't really tell how well the new feeding tube has been working since they haven't run it yet. They took him to surgery today to remove the central line. Took about 30 minutes and apparently was chock full of infection.
They changed his urinary catheter out last night. It was clogged. I bet that felt nice. No wonder he hasn't had much urine output. I guess its better than having kidney failure.
Martha is leaving tomorrow. Scott is going up this weekend for the UNI game and is staying both nights.
Ill write more when I know more.

Man, that is awful....were they able to give you guys any idea of how long all of this crap has been going on? I can't even imagine how uncomfortable your Dad was.....ugh! I'm so glad you were there that day. This has been an awful way to realize the lack of care these type of facilities provide.....very disturbing! Hang in there and let your Dad know we'll have a package ready for him when he's settled!
