Friday news

Well, Preston is leaking fluid out of his incision again, which makes me wonder if he does need 2 shunts. Because the external shunt is on his left side, and he is leaking fluid out of his right side. The doctor said it was fluid, there is some around the internal shunt. But at this point, he is going to do surgery tentatively at 1 p.m. on Monday; maybe earlier if it can be arranged. Preston is not worried about the surgery but not being able to eat that day. This will be his 5th surgery in 3 weeks. They are going to see if they can get this internal shunt to work, if not, put in a new one. You know, sometimes I wonder if this will ever ends, because there is quite a bit of blood that is new blood coming out of his brain, due to irritation. Will it plug up the new shunt??? Only God knows. At this point, I can only live one day at a time. He is in good spirits and teasing and laughing. He has been an angel these past 3 weeks. I wish I would have thought about the shunt acting up much sooner than I did. But live and learn.

Yesterday was the first day we did not have any company. I am not saying this to complain, but to tell everyone that we have been in here almost 3 weeks and have had company every day but one. Isn't that amazing? We have already had company today.
Junior is going home after work to shower and get dressed in clean clothes, then coming over here and I am going home. I have to wash clothes, wash my hair, and do some things around the house. I need to clean all of the leftovers out of the refrigerator. Missie is due back any time, and will be going with me. Tomorrow I will come and relieve Jr. for a while so he can go home and then he will stay tonight and tomorrow with Preston. So I will get to sleep in my own bed!
My inlaws are planning on coming down for the surgery, but going back the same day.
I think I will keep Missie here next week and work on school. So we will see how it all goes.

I AM GLAD IT IS FRIDAY!!!!
