I just got off the phone with him. He says today is "supposed to be the worst day" because they're going to have him walk.
Right now he's sitting, and he's graduated to ice cubes from swabs, although he still can't drink.
He says it hurts like hell.
He wanted to know what was happening in the general world and I told him about yesterday's GRE post, what I'm planning for today, and last night's "360" report.
He had to go because he can only take so much conversation before getting fatigued.
A reminder to well-wishers: Have mercy on the guy and don't load up his inbox with emails. He'll have enough challenges facing him on his return.
Support can still be sent via the donation button at Sipsey Street Irregulars, and to P.O. Box 926, Pinson, AL 35126. He’ll be in the hospital for some time, but flowers are not allowed in ICU. Cards can be sent to him via Trinity Medical Center, 800 Montclair Road, Birmingham, AL 35213.
