Today is the first day since Tuesday when Dick got out of the hospital that he has actually felt really good. He had his surgery yesterday for his kidney stone where they move he stone up into the kidney and placed a stent to hold the stone in his kidney until he is able to have lithotripsy, which should be within the next two to three weeks.
Today he took two walks around the block. He got his hair cut, which he has been anxious to get done. He was able to get out and have lunch and diner and was actually hungry enough to eat both times. He even did a couple of errands today like some banking and went to the pharmacy. He is still not driving and he is not on his own yet but he is accomplishing a lot of daily tasks on his own at home. He gets tired and has to take breaks but he as usual is still pushing him self and is determined to be left on his own as soon as possible. We all wish this for him. We know how independent he is and how much he has earned it. It will not be too long before he will get his wish.
