Mixed news first--Dad went for a follow up with the heart doctor the other day. Everything seems well but the doctor paid close attention to what he was hearing on stethescope. No need for concern at the moment, but he wants to see Ralph again at the end of September. He is concerned about the night duty and the heat. Ralph is not to do heavy lifting (over 40 lbs) which will be hard for him. He is always moving boxes and things. Another reason to dispose of a lot of stuff:) But it seems the blood pressure is good and they did not change his perscriptions.
Good news--Elaine had a disk removed in hger back on Thursday. Everything went well. It was the bottom disk and they put a spacer in. She had physical Therapy on Friday and did well. They are sending her home today (Saturday). She is doing very well and the only problem is she now has some pretty fierce migrane headaches. The dr. said they would probably go away as soon as she is home and comfortable there.
Delaware State Fair is this week so I am sure we will be going up to see it at least 2 times this week.
