omg! I usually don't use the computer much over the weekend and the last I heard Andy was out of surgery (the first one) and I thought he was recovering. I'll send some more prayers, but I think Andy did pretty well over the weekend without them.
Kimmy, I know that I have never met you or Andy, but when I read all these posts I was truly worried and I started to tear up. I have no idea how you are feeling or felt all weekend. Hang in there and everything will be ok soon. I’m so glad to hear that Andy is much better.

Andy, Kimmy, Kia and kitties,
May the Force be with you. ;) May you be feeling MUCH better soon. Hospital food is icky.;)
Sending Corgi Butt Wiggles and Meezer Kisses...

Kimmy called just after I posted the 10 AM Tail ...
"Did you TALK to Andy this morning??" :confused:
He'd remembered he talked to "someone from PT" ...
But was a lil *fuzzie* about what he'd said. :p
Kimmy explained he was still a lil Loopie and didn't always
make a lot of sense yet.
I assured her he'd done just fine!
She went on to say that Andy was in *trouble* with the White Coats -
1) He'd only "picked" at his first solid food meal - breakfast
2) And said he'd rather *rest* than get up outta bed...
:eek: Said Doc!
1) *EAT* what we give ya!!
2) PLAN on being OUT of bed - SOON!
Then Doc delivered "The Lecture" to Andy & the Folks. :D
Now we just had a 3:30 PM UppyDate from Kimmy >>>
They kicked him OUT of ICU - no more Andy-Sittin by the ICU Nurses!
Pulled ALL the Tubes & Monitors - all except the chest drain tube -
he might have that for a couple more days.
No more "Baffroom in Bed" :rolleyes: - gotta "pee" ya gotta WALK
to the lil room!! :o
He's now down on the 5th Floor - "Regular" Room!
No *roomie* at present; but he could get one.
And the New Rules are:
he's gotta do some *Hikin in the Halls*;
*EAT* everything they give him;
and No more *sleepin in* all day!
They'll send him HOME :) when the chest tube stops dribblin drainage.
Could be ANY day now - all depends on the drainage from around his lungs.
Kimmy will stay till Andy's bed time (8 PM) tonight;
run to Andy's Fokls' House to pack up and post a quick Andy Tail;
then head for HER House to feed the "starvin" Kats.
Kia stays with Gram & Gramp (Kim's Folks) till the weekend.
Plans are for Andy to spend a couple nights at the Folks' House;
then move back to his apartment with his Roomies.
And the Roomies have THEIR Instructions, too!
Andy will be on an *enforced" EAT RITE programme!!
One roomie is a weight lifter / healthy eater type -
Guess what Andy is in for!? :p
*EAT this GOOD Food - or I'll SIT on ya!! :D
The Roomies, lil Brudder, and his Folks will continue the
frequent visits till Andy gets sent home.
Hopefully he'll be at the Folks or his own apartment by the weekend.
Few more PT Prayers to help keep us progressing and we should be
able to relaxe.

Thanks to you Phred, our ace reporter and patient advocate, for the detailed update and the good news!!! Hopefully Andy will listen to the white coats and before long, be home in his OWN bed! Prayers continue for his swift recovery! GO ANDY!:)
I was just getting ready to call Kimmy, as Phred had asked me to do the evening update, but I see he was able to fit it into his schedule. I think I'll let Kimmy enjoy her last 20 mintues or so before visitors get kicked out and wait for her update...
Glad to hear things are going so well! Eat up Andy!! A true superhero, like Spiderman, needs his strength!!
Well, that's certainly a relief that he's getting better. Come on Andy, you'd better eat up and get that walking in. Lots more prayers on the way.

Sorry, but I just couldn't help but laugh at this Phred. :D :D
Andy didn't get out of bed a whole lot after being moved out of ICU. He would however, sit up and swing his legs over the side of the bed. He did this to eat and to "use the facilities" (aka: the bottle :eek: ;) ). He hasn't quite made it to walking to the bathroom.
Though tomorrow he might. He should be scooting the halls in the new "bear claw" slippers I got him. ;) :D
As usual, I hated to leave him, though it was harder this time because I know I won't see him tomorrow. :(
Don't worry Kim. He probably just needs to build his strength up a bit more. Tomorrow will be better, I'm sure.
Won't stop praying until he's home and well again. Would love to see a pic of those slippers. :D
I know it was sad for you to leave him tonight, but it sounds like he's doing great, Kimmy. I hope he can report good things to you when you check in with him tomorrow.
