Update on our dads…

My father-in-law expects to get out of the hospital today. He’s still feeling the pain of his broken ribs, but at least the collapsed lung seems to be functioning and not filling up with fluid so much any more. He is anxious to get back to the farm. We're all anxious that he stays in bed once he gets there.

My dad’s recovery has been slowed down a bit by a looming infection. He’s on antibiotics to help with that, and trying to walk the hospital corridors a few times a day so he can go home, but my mom thinks it will be Wednesday at the earliest.
