So happy to be home!

Dad and Mom have been home since Monday afternoon and are loving it! Dad is considered an outpatient right now which means he will have to go back to Vancouver for tests and things every other day. We do not know for how long this will be; they are trying to take it one week at a time.

This week Dad's tests were good and the stay in Vancouver was not a long one. We're hopeful all the trips will be like this and they can be back home again quickly. The drive to Vancouver is about an hour from Mom and Dad's place so it's nice to not have to stay too long at the hospital and get back on the road again.

Dad has an appetite again and is almost like a pregnant lady craving certain foods. He is enjoying being home and being able to watch Canucks on his own tv with his boys.

Mom has given the house a big spring cleaning and keeps busy caring for Dad. Dad still tires easily and rests a lot but it is sure nice to have them back home again.

I will most likely update the blog once a week to update on how Dad is doing. Thank you for your continued support and prayers!
