    Friday, December 10

    I called the hospital yesterday. I tried to reach his case worker but I only got her voice mail so I did not find out why Phred was not able to post the other day. So I called his room. He did not answer but one of the nurses did and she said he was sleeping and was very tired. She had me call the nurses desk and try to speak to his nurse but she was evidently at lunch. The nurse who did answer said he was doing fairly well. He is having some trouble with adjusting to the dialysis but that is not unusual and it makes him tired which is also not unusual so he sleeps more. I told her that I and possibly Staci and Carl would be coming next Friday to see him and pick up the dogs and she was glad to hear that. She even suggested that I try to "sneak" one of the dogs up so he could see them. And she told me how but she would not be there but she would tell all the secretaries so they would know what was going on.

    I also tried to reach his friends to tell them that I was for sure coming on Friday but only got their voice mail. So things seem to be going fairly well and I am anxious to see him so I can see that for myself.

    That would be so awesome Wouldn't Phred be thrilled to see one of his pups I do hope it works out well and that he is able to have a good visit with you and a furbaby - best medicine in the world!

    You guys are just wonderful to be doing this = thank you so much

    Diana, thank you for the update. Getting to see one of the pups should
    be good medicine for Phred(and for the pup too, I'll bet).

    I will be anxious to hear from you directly on how you feel Phred is doing.
    Nothing like first hand impressions & getting to speak to him & his nurses
    yourself. Tell Phred will all miss him & wish him the best.

    Thank you, Diana, for the update, Won't he be surprised, and so happy, to see one of his buddies. That would make anyone feel so much better.

    What a wonderful thing for you to do. It will mean so much to Phred.
    I have the prayers and candles going strong.
