People have asked for the address of the hospital. The hospital is St. Joseph's, but I don't know the address. We think it would be better to send it to our house and we'll make sure it gets to my papa. We don't know how long we're going to be there and everything. If you don't know our address it's :
105 Colchester Rd.
Minoa, NY 13116
There's not much new. He has c-dif back. There's no news on any nursing homes taking him. He's of his heart monitor and the doctor says everything looks okay except for the c-dif. Well, that's all for now.

To answer your questions, yes, he has a picc line and yes, he is still in the hospital. He wasn't sent back to nursing home because he has a blood clot. The nursing home near us won't take him because the care he needs is too expensive. We're trying to get him into other nursing homes, but there's only three nursing homes that qualify to take him. So right now, he's just staying at the hospital.

He's doing really good. They're planning on sending him back to the nursing home tomorrow. He's enjoying ice cream that we buy him. He won't eat much of his dinner. He had an ultrasound on his arm because it was swollen. It really hurt him. Well, that's it.

They've moved him around to so many different floors in the hospital. He had surgery last night to get rid of his bed sore. It went well. He's finally settled on the first floor in a really nice room. We still don't know when he's coming out of the hospital. We really think that getting rid of all these infections will help him get better so much faster. He didn't really wake up tonight. The anesthesia still hasn't worn totally off. Plus yesterday was very tiring for him. Well, that's all for now.

He's still in the hospital. Two of the infections are gone. He still has one. Papa's very alert. He's getting mad at doctors and these stockings he has to wear. He's doing really good.
