The Ultimate Fighter

Dad finally got to sleep in his own bed again!  He had a fairly good night sleep as well. 

Today's been a good day as well.  He woke up ready to EAT!  Dad hadn't been eating much the past few days and he is slowly regaining his appetite.  We pray that his appetite continues to grow and he will be able to gain more nutrition and more strength.  We are taking this a day at a time. 

This afternoon, we did see his Neurosurgeon.  (During his hospital stay, the doctors had ordered a brain CT Scan which did show small hemorrhaging.)  His brain surgeon was cautiously optimistic that if it's only one area and specifically a tumor that is bleeding, they will be able to radiate it if dad chooses.  Dad will have a brain MRI scheduled for later in the week.  He thought dad looked good in the sense that he was able to walk himself into the office and was having a conversation.  We were thankful to hear such positive comments from a doctor! 

We continue to pray for strength, no pain, comfort, peace and ultimate healing.  Dad is the ultimate fighter...the other Michael A. Grant has nothing on dad.  :)
