As Dorothy Said

Denny is home.  The doctor released him today.  I could see him just soaking everything in as we drove up the driveway.  As Dorothy said when she clicked her ruby slippers together, "There's no place like home."

His neck swelling has gone down quite a bit.  The blood cultures came back and show no bacteria in the blood.  Dr. Murphy's opinion is it was more blood clot than infection.  He will remain on antibiotics, steroids and blood thinners until everything is back to normal. 

The question remains as to whether he will be getting his second chemo treatment on Monday.  We will be getting the answer to that in the next day or so.  I'll keep you posted.

Our sincerest thanks to Pastor Mark Youngman for his hospital visit with Denny.  It was much appreciated.  We would also like to thank all of you for the cards, texts, emails, and prayers for Denny.  Those words of encouragement make his days even richer.  Thanks for checking in.
