Regular Day Recovering

I'm currently at the hospital w/Dad.  We ate lunch together and I got to meet with his "infectious disease" doctor.  (I didn't know he had one of those OR needed one... but evidently he does with this type of infection.!!)  He said he has "Cellulitus" so that's why that doctor is involved.  She said she works directly with his Foot Doc, Dr. Smedley.  They are changing his antibiotic to keeflex or one of those types, since he is allergic to penicillin and all. 
It does NOT sound like he will be released in the early hours of tomorrow, but it could be tomorrow afternoon or Friday.  My bet is that BY FRIDAY he will be released if they feel the infection is under control because hospitals are known for releasing on Friday for some reason.  Of course, if he still needs to show better progress they will keep him.. its just the feeling I get from speaking with all the staff.

Thanks for your Prayers!

Dad is doing better.  Keep him in your prayers...
